We review the rapid recent progress in single-photon sources based on multiplexing multiple probabilistic photon-creation events. Such multiplexing allows higher single-photon probabilities and lower contamination from higher-order photon states. We study the requirements for multiplexed sources and compare various approaches to multiplexing using different degrees of freedom.
我们回顾了基于复用多个概率性光子产生事件的单光子源近期取得的快速进展。这种复用可实现更高的单光子概率,并降低高阶光子态的污染。我们研究了复用光源的要求,并比较了利用不同自由度进行复用的各种方法。
