On-chip generation of four-photon entangled qubit states

We demonstrate four-photon entangled qubits generated from an integrated quantum frequency comb source. This is confirmed by four-photon quantum interference with a visibility above 89%, and quantum state tomography revealing a fidelity above 64%.
