Scale-up quantum technologies with solid-state single-photon sources

In the past years, with the advancement of quantum technologies, quantum optics have consolidated its central role within the different applications, ranging from quantum computing to quantum communication and quantum metrology.

Together with integrated circuits and detectors, single-photon sources represent a key enabling technology which can lead to the scale-up of different protocols toward practical and useful implementations.

In this talk I will introduce the technology of solid-state emitter, working principle, performance and challenges for improvement and highlight recent implementations focused on multi-photon interference.
