Single Photons on Pseudo-Demand from Stored Parametric Down-Conversion
T. B. Pittman, B. C. Jacobs, J. D. Franson
abstract: We describe the results of a parametric down-conversion experiment in which
the detection of one photon of a pair causes the other photon to be switched
into a storage loop. The stored photon can then be switched out of the loop at
a later time chosen by the user, providing a single photon for potential use in
a variety of quantum information processing applications. Although the stored
single photon is only available at periodic time intervals, those times can be
chosen to match the cycle time of a quantum computer by using pulsed
down-conversion. The potential use of the storage loop as a photonic quantum
memory device is also discussed.
