Long-duration quantum memories for photonic qubits are essential components for achieving long-distance quantum networks and repeaters. The mapping of optical states onto coherent spin-waves in rare earth ensembles is a particularly promising approach to quantum storage. However, it remains challenging to achieve long-duration storage at the...
Rare-earth ion doped crystals have proven to be solid platforms for implementing quantum memories. Their potential use for integrated photonics with large multiplexing capability and unprecedented coherence times is at the core of their attractiveness. The best performances of these ions are however usually obtained when subject to a dc...
Light is a perfect candidate to carry out quantum information for applications to quantum computation, communication and metrology. Information can be encoded using observables with discrete spectrum (or DV for discrete variable encoding) as well as with continuous spectrum observables (or CV for continuous variable encoding). One of the most...

Non-Gaussian quantum states of light are important resources for implementing quantum information tasks, ranging from fault-tolerant optical quantum information processing to long distance quantum communication. These states can be generated by applying non-Gaussian operations, such as photon addition and subtraction, to an input Gaussian...
Disposing of simple and efficient sources for photonic states with non-classical photon statistics is of paramount importance for implementing quantum computation and communication protocols. In this work, we propose an innovative approach that drastically simplifies the preparation of non-Gaussian states as compared to previous proposals, by...

Achieving spin squeezing within solid-state devices is a long standing research goal, due to the promise of their particularities, for instance their long coherence times, the possibility of low-temperature experiments or integration of entanglement-assisted sensors on-chip. In this work, we investigate an interferometer-free four-color scheme...
This paper establishes a versatile theoretical framework that explicitly describes single-photon subtractionfrom multimode quantum light in the context of non-Gaussian state generation and manipulation. The treatmentfocuses on easy-to-implement configurations in which no mode-selective operation is available and evaluatesfeatures and advantages...

Optical non-Gaussian quantum states can be generated in a heralded manner by applying a photon subtraction operation to a Gaussian input state. In our work, we develop a theoretical framework to describe this operation in the case where the input state is spectrally multimode. This framework allows the optimal design of photon subtraction...
In the context of quantum integrated photonics, this work investigates the quantum properties of light generated by silicon and silicon nitride micro-resonators pumped in pulsed regime. The developed theoretical model, performed in terms of the morphing supermodes, provides a comprehensive description of the generated quantum states....

In the context of emerging quantum technologies, this work marks an important progress towards practical quantum optical systems in the continuous variable regime. It shows the feasibility of experiments where non-Gaussian state generation entirely relies on plug-and-play components from guided-wave optics technologies. This strategy is...
