We experimentally demonstrate that tomographic measurements can be performed for states of qubits before they are prepared.A variant of the quantum teleportation protocol is used as a channel between two instants in time,allowing measurements for polarization states of photons to be implemented 88 ns before they are *** data taken at the early time and later unscrambled according to the results of the protocol’s Bell measurements,produces density matrices with an average fidelity of 0.90±0.01 against the ideal states of photons created at the later *** tomography of the time reverse quantum channel finds an average process fidelity of 0.84±*** our proof-of-principle implementation necessitates some post-selection,the general protocol is deterministic and requires no post-selection to sift desired states and reject a larger ensemble.
We realize reconfigurable photonic devices that, once configured, consume no power. Here, we use the controlled deposition and sublimation of xenon to achieve π-phase shifts over a minimum length of just Lπ = 12.3...

Photonics has been a promising platform for implementing quantum technologies owing to its scalability and robustness. In this paper, we demonstrate the encoding of information in 32 time bins or dimensions of a single photon. A practical scheme for manipulating the single photon in high dimensions is experimentally realized to implement a compiled version of Shor’s algorithm on a single photon. Our work demonstrates the powerful information-processing capacity of a high-dimensional quantum system for complex quantum information tasks.

Multiphoton interference is at the heart of photonic quantum technologies. Arrays of integrated cavities can support bright sources of single photons with high purity and small footprint, but the inevitable spectral distinguishability between photons generated from nonidentical cavities is an obstacle to scaling. In principle, this problem can be alleviated by measuring photons with high timing resolution, which erases spectral information through the time-energy uncertainty relation. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that detection can be implemented with a temporal resolution sufficient to interfere photons detuned on the scales necessary for cavity-based integrated photon sources. By increasing the effective timing resolution of the system from 200 to 20 ps, we observe a 20% increase in the visibility of quantum interference between independent photons from integrated microring resonator sources that are detuned by 6.8 GHz. We go on to show how time-resolved detection of nonideal photons can be used to improve the fidelity of an entangling operation and to mitigate the reduction of computational complexity in boson sampling experiments. These results pave the way for photonic quantum information processing with many photon sources without the need for active alignment.
We extend counterfactual, or exchange-free, imaging to the polarimetry of a polarising object. This allows imaging of these samples with far less absorbed energy - a key concern when imaging with high-frequency radiat...
