Independent Indistinguishable Quantum Light Sources On A Reconfigurable Photonic Integrated Circuit

We report a compact, scalable, quantum photonic integrated circuit realised by combining multiple, tuneable InGaAs/GaAs quantum dot single photon sources with a silicon oxynitride waveguide circuit. Each waveguide in the circuit is addressed by a separate, electrically controlled quantum dot-containing diode. We show that the quantum dot emission from neighbouring diodes can be independently tuned to degeneracy using the Stark Effect and that the resulting photon streams are indistinguishable. This enables on-chip Hong-Ou-Mandel-type interference, as required for many photonic quantum information processing schemes. (C) 2018 Author(s).
