Generating photonic graph states includes positioning a plurality of quantum emitters at a plurality of coupling sites associated with a plurality of cavities and initializing a state of a quantum emitter qubit associated with each of the plurality of quantum emitters. Photonic qubits are transmitted toward the plurality of the quantum emitters a first instance transmission for generating an entangling gate between the photonic qubits and the quantum emitter qubit in order to entangle the quantum emitter qubit and the photonic qubits. Following the first instance transmission, photonic qubits are transmitted toward the plurality of quantum emitters in a one second instance transmission for generating a SWAP gate between the photonic qubits and the quantum emitter qubits to map the quantum emitter qubits to photonic qubits.
