Synchronizing single photons with quantum memories

Synchronizing single photons with quantum memories

Without deterministic single photon sources, multiphoton rates fall exponentially with the number of photons required, making practical photonics unfeasible. We show how quantum memories improve multiphoton rates by many orders of magnitude.
