Multiplexing of quantum memories could boost the efficiency of photon state preparation. Here, the authors use a cold atomic ensemble and a single-photon resolving camera to exploit emission multiplexing of Raman photons from 665 different angular modes, confirming nonclassical photon-number correlations.
