Abstract

The realization of scalable systems for quantum information processing and networking is of utmost importance to the quantum information community. However, building such systems is difficult because of challenges in achieving all the necessary functionalities on a unified platform while maintaining stringent performance requirements of the individual elements. A promising approach which addresses this challenge is based on the consolidation of experimental and theoretical capabilities in quantum physics and integrated photonics. Integrated quantum photonics devices allow efficient control and read-out of quantum information while being scalable and cost effective. Here we review recent developments in solid-state single photon emitters coupled with various integrated photonic structures, which form a critical component of future scalable quantum devices. Our work contributes to the further development and realization of quantum networking protocols and quantum logic on a scalable and fabrication-friendly platform.
