Photonic hat-trick published in Nature

Direct generation of photon triplets using cascaded photon-pair sources by Hannes Hübel, Deny Hamel, Sven Ramelow, Alessandro Fedrizzi, Kevin Resch, and Thomas Jennewein was published today in Nature.

Parametric down-conversion is the most common source of entangled photon pairs. It uses a nonlinear optical process to split a pump photon, typically […]
