Quantum Computations with Polarized Photons
Giacomo Mauro D’Ariano, Chiara Macchiavello, Lorenzo Maccone · Fortschritte der Physik · 2000
We propose a fully optical method to perform any quantum computation by supplying the prescriptions for a universal set of quantum gates. We also give the methods for the generation of input states and the realization of final measurements. The apparatus is scalable, and relies on high Kerr non-linearities.
