      abstract = {We present a mechanism that harnesses extremely weak  Kerr-type nonlinearities in a single driven cavity to  deterministically generate single-photon Fock states and  more general photon-blockaded states. Our method is  effective even for nonlinearities that are  orders-of-magnitude smaller than photonic loss. It is also  completely distinct from so-called unconventional photon  blockade mechanisms, as the generated states are  non-Gaussian, exhibit a sharp cutoff in their photon number  distribution, and can be arbitrarily close to a  single-photon Fock state. Our ideas require only standard  linear and parametric drives and are hence compatible with  a variety of different photonic platforms.},
