Coherent temporal filtering of multimode parametric down-conversion using a quantum pulse gate
Scientists used a quantum pulse gate (a device that picks a single time shape of a photon) to clean up photons from a multimode source and compared it to regular intensity filters. This makes single photons purer and more alike, which is important for quantum
