Quantum photonic integrated circuits (QuPIC) constitutes the backbone of several large scale quantum computer and network systems. Hence, the discrete and bulk optics components used in current quantum optic systems have to be replaced with integrated/on-chip photonic components in order to realize any scalable quantum photonic systems. To design, test and improve such photonic components for QuPIC systems testing of hundreds of on-chip devices are very important. Such measurements are essential to improve statistical process control, scalable design implementation, optimization of fabrication process window, improved yield, and volume production of photonic components constituting the QuPIC systems [1, 2]. In this project, we measure and analyse performance of various photonic components for large scale, diamond color center based quantum photonic system.
