Recent Progress in Multiplexed Single-Photon Sources

We review the progress in multiplexed single-photon sources, including overviews on heralded single-photon sources and photon-number-resolving detectors, the various approaches to multiplexing, and their successful experimental realizations. We also summarize the recent results on the theoretical de...

Description
Summary:We review the progress in multiplexed single-photon sources, including overviews on heralded single-photon sources and photon-number-resolving detectors, the various approaches to multiplexing, and their successful experimental realizations. We also summarize the recent results on the theoretical description and optimization of multiplexed single-photon sources, focusing on the procedures and methods that enable the improvement of the performance of these sources.
