Abstract
We demonstrate that Kerr nonlinearity in optical circuits can lead to both resonant four-wave mixing and photon blockade, which can be used for high-yield generation of high-fidelity individual photon pairs with conjugated frequencies. We propose an optical circuit, which, in the optimal pulsed-drive regime, would produce photon pairs at the rate up to 105s-1 (0.5 pairs per pulse) with g(2)<10-2 for one of the conjugated frequencies. We show that such a scheme can be utilised to generate color-entangled photons.
