Abstract

The present invention relates to a monolithically integrated photon pair source, in particular a monolithically constructed waveguide stack configured for providing quantum mechanically entangled photon pairs by means of parametric fluorescence (Spontaneous Parametric Down Conversion, SPDC). A monolithically integrated photon pair source according to the invention comprises a dielectric waveguide, DWL, (10); and a Bragg reflection waveguide, BRWL, (30), configured for providing quantum mechanically entangled photon pairs by means of parametric fluorescence, wherein the BRWL (30) is arranged below the DWL (10) and these interact with each other in a common coupling section (CA) such that pump radiation guided in the DWL (10) is coupled into the BRWL (30).
