Entangled quantum states of multiple photons are crucial for pushing the boundaries of photonic quantum technologies. The generation of large multi-photon entangled states demands light sources that provide highly pure photons with high efficiency (either deterministic or heralded), as these factors limit scalability. A popular approach is to herald single-photons from photon-pair sources based on spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC). Despite the spatial and spectral multimode emission of the process, potentially constraining the heralding efficiency and purity, the emitted photons can be engineered with single-mode characteristics, through waveguide geometries [1], group velocity matching techniques [2] or cavity resonators [3]. Here, we present a narrowband (170 MHz) single-photon source at the C-band based on pulsed SPDC in a monolithic crystal cavity. Pure (P>95%) and fiber-compatible single-photons have been generated with 85% heralding efficiency.
