Thin‐film lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) emerges as a promising platform for integrated quantum photon source, enabling scalable on‐chip quantum information processing. The most popular technique to overcome the phase mismatching between interacting waves in waveguide is periodic poling, which is intrinsically sensitive to poling uniformity. Here, an alternative strategy to offset the phase mismatching of spontaneous parametric down‐conversion (SPDC) process, so‐called modal phase matching, in a straight waveguide fabricated on a dual‐layer LNOI is reported. The dual‐layer LNOI consists of two 300 nm lithium niobates with opposite directions, which significantly enhances the spatial overlap between fundamental and high‐order modes and thus enables efficient SPDC. This dual‐layer waveguide generates photon pairs with pair generation rate of 41.77 GHz , which exhibits excellent signal‐to‐noise performance with coincidence‐to‐accidental ratio up to 58298 1297. Moreover, a heralded single‐photon source with second‐order autocorrelation and heralded rate exceeding 100 kHz is observed. The results provide an experiment‐friendly approach for efficient generation of quantum photon sources and benefit the on‐chip quantum information processing based on LNOI.
