    Abstract

    The quantum correction of photon pairs inspired the development of quantum ghost imaging principles. It offers fundamental advantages compared to conventional imaging, including the operation at ultra-low photon flux and the potential for higher resolution [1]. Over the last year, it was demonstrated experimentally that nonlinear metasurfaces with a thickness of only a few hundred nanometers can facilitate strongly enhanced generation of photon pairs through spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC). Furthermore, the quantum photon state can be tailored to feature spatial [2] and spectral [3] entanglement. However, the potential of metasurface-based photon-pair sources for quantum imaging was not previously investigated.
