Multiple intrinsically identical single-photon emitters in the solid state

TLDR
This work demonstrates bright silicon vacancy (SiV(-)) centres in low-strain bulk diamond, which show spectral overlap of up to 91% and nearly transform-limited excitation linewidths, the first time that distinct single-photon emitters in the solid state have shown intrinsically identical spectral properties.
Abstract
In quantum optical technologies, identical emitters of indistinguishable single photons are difficult to realize due to the inherent dissimilarity of each emitting device Here, Rogers et al demonstrate a solid-state uniform single-photon source, which does not require external tuning of optical properties

A scheme for efficient quantum computation with linear optics.

TL;DR: It is shown that efficient quantum computation is possible using only beam splitters, phase shifters, single photon sources and photo-detectors and are robust against errors from photon loss and detector inefficiency.

Indistinguishable photons from a single-photon device

TL;DR: It is found that consecutive photons are largely indistinguishable, with a mean wave-packet overlap as large as 0.81, making this source useful in a variety of experiments in quantum optics and quantum information.

Heralded entanglement between solid-state qubits separated by three metres

TL;DR: Long-distance entanglement of two electron spin qubits in diamond with a spatial separation of three metres is established using a robust protocol based on creation of spin–photonEntanglement at each location and a subsequent joint measurement of the photons.

Semiconductor quantum light sources

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of single-photon sources based on the emission of a single semiconductor quantum dot is presented, which suggests that it may be possible to realize compact, robust, LED-like semiconductor devices for quantum light generation.
