Guest Editorial Integrated Photonics for Quantum Applications

The 17 papers in this special issue focus on integrated photonics for quantum applications. Covers topics in the field of integrated photonics for emerging quantum applications such as communications, computing, networking, and sensing and aims to provide a global audience with the newest developments in these rapidly evolving fields. Integrated photonics such as fiber or integrated photonic waveguides, quantum light sources, detectors, and others are considered key to miniaturize bulky bench-top experiments down to chip-level and integrate them into larger systems, achieving essential improvements in performance and practical deployment for the various quantum applications.
