We demonstrate three and four input multiports in a three dimensional glass platform, fabricated using the femtosecond laser direct-write technique. Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference is observed and a full quantum characterisation is performed, obtaining two photon correlation matrices for all combinations of input and output ports. For the three-port case, the quantum visibilities are accurately predicted solely from measurement of the classical coupling ratios.
We experimentally demonstrate the non-monotonic dependence of genuine many-particle interference signals on the particles mutual distinguishability. Our theoretical analysis shows that such non-monotonicity is a generic feature of the quantum to clas
Kernel methods are ubiquitous in classical machine learning, and recently their formal similarity with quantum mechanics has been established. To grasp the potential advantage of quantum machine learning, it is necessary to understand the distinction
Fourth-order interference is an information processing primitive for photonic quantum technologies. When used in conjunction with post-selection, it forms the basis of photonic controlled logic gates, entangling measurements, and can be used to produ
It is shown that quantum walks on one-dimensional arrays of special linear-optical units allow the simulation of discrete-time Hamiltonian systems with distinct topological phases. In particular, a slightly modified version of the Su-Schrieffer-Heege
Non-reciprocal photonic devices are essential components of classical optical information processing. It is interesting and important to investigate their feasibility in the quantum world. In this work, the quantum properties of an on-chip silicon ni
