We report on the quantum storage of a heralded frequency-multiplexed single photon in an
integrated laser-written rare-earth doped waveguide. The single photon contains 15 discrete
frequency modes separated by 261 MHz and spanning across 4 GHz. It is obtained from a
nondegenerate photon pair created via cavity-enhanced spontaneous down-conversion,
where the heralding photon is at telecom wavelength and the heralded photon is at 606 nm.

We report on the quantum storage of a heralded frequency-multiplexed single photon in an integrated laser-written rare-earth doped waveguide. The single photon contains 15 discrete frequency modes separated by 261 MHz and spanning across 4 GHz. It is obtained from a nondegenerate photon pair created via cavity-enhanced spontaneous down-conversion, where the heralding photon is at telecom wavelength and the heralded photon is at 606 nm. The frequency-multimode photon is stored in a praseodymium-doped waveguide using the atomic frequency comb (AFC) scheme, by creating multiple combs within the inhomogeneous broadening of the crystal. Thanks to the intrinsic temporal multimodality of the AFC scheme, each spectral bin includes 9 temporal modes, such that the total number of stored modes is about 130. We demonstrate that the storage preserves the nonclassical properties of the single photon, and its normalized frequency spectrum.
