TL;DR: A quantum boson-sampling machine (QBSM) is constructed to sample the output distribution resulting from the nonclassical interference of photons in an integrated photonic circuit, a problem thought to be exponentially hard to solve classically.

TL;DR: In this paper, a fully integrated implementation of quantum teleportation in which all key parts of the circuit - entangled state preparation, Bell-state analysis and tomographic state measurement - are performed on a reconfigurable photonic chip is presented.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates three-photon quantum operation of an integrated device containing three coupled interferometers, eight spatial modes and many classical and nonclassical interferences, and introduces a new scheme to verify quantum behaviour, using classically characterised device elements and hierarchies of photon correlation functions.

TL;DR: A key proof-of-principle demonstration of an externallycontrolled photonic quantum circuit based upon UV-written waveguide technology and non-classical interference of photon pairs in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer constructed with X couplers in an integrated optical circuit.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates a promising solution: generation of heralded single photons in a silica photonic chip by spontaneous four-wave mixing, and calculates that similar high-heralded-purity output can be obtained from visible to telecom spectral regions using this approach.
