| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In optical quantum information processing, single photon states are fundamental resources. It is required to synchronize many pure single photon states so that they interfere on a beam splitter network. Pure single photon states can be generated with the heralding scheme. However, with this scheme, the success of state generation becomes probabilistic. Therefore, an important task is to store pure single photon states for synchronization. In this research, we experimentally succeeded in storage of two single photon states which are generated randomly by means of concatenated cavity systems, and in simultaneous release of them, making interference pattern on a beam splitter. This is an important achievement toward advancement of quantum information processing.
