Efficient and reliable measurements of photonic indistinguishability are crucial to solidify claims of a quantum advantage in photonics. Existing indistinguishability witnesses may be vulnerable to implementation loopholes, showing the need for a measurement which depends on as few assumptions as possible. Here, we introduce a semi-device-independent witness of photonic indistinguishability and measure it on an integrated photonic processor, certifying three-photon indistinguishability in a way that is insensitive to implementation errors in our processor.

  1. Experimental validation of boson sampling using detector binning

    quant-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Binned-mode photon-count distributions validate three-photon boson sampling over 50 random interferometers, and their Haar-averaged variance is proportional to the sum of squared photon overlaps.

  2. Observation of Lie algebraic invariants in Quantum Linear Optics

    quant-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Experiments on a reconfigurable eight-mode photonic chip confirm that first-order Lie algebraic invariants are conserved under linear optical evolution, supporting their use as a benchmark for boson sampling devices.
