Quantum information science has found great experimental success by
exploiting single photons. To date, however, the majority of
quantum optical experiments use large-scale (bulk) optical elements
bolted down to an optical bench, an approach that ultimately limits
the complexity and stability of the quantum circuits required for
quantum science and technology. The realization of complex optical
schemes involving large numbers of elements requires the
introduction of waveguide technology to achieve the desired
scalability, stability and miniaturization of the device. This
thesis reports on surprising findings in the field of integrated
devices for quantum information. Here the polarization of the
photon is shown to offer a suitable degree of freedom for encoding
quantum information in integrated systems. The most important
results concern: the quantum interference of polarization entangled
photons in an on-chip directional coupler; the realization of a
Controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate operating with polarization qubits; the
realization of a quantum walk of bosons and fermions in an ordered
optical lattice and the quantum simulation of Anderson localization
of bosons and fermions simulated by polarization entangled photons
in a disordered quantum walk. The findings presented in this thesis
represent an important step towards the integration of a complete
quantum photonic experiment in a chip.
