摘要
Silicon photonics is rapidly emerging as a promising, scalable platform for quantum information applications. As the technology matures, sources of high-quality quantum-optical states are increasingly important. We discuss the use of intermodal four-wave mixing in silicon waveguides for creating entangled photon pairs. We describe a framework to numerically analyze the state of produced photon pairs and discuss a scheme for generating photon pairs that are purely entangled in their transverse waveguide mode. Using this scheme, we find a theoretical fidelity of 99.6% to a true Bell state in the transverse mode with no spectral correlations.
