Non-deterministic Gates for Photonic Single Rail Quantum Logic

Quantum Physics 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

We discuss techniques for producing, manipulating and measureing qubits encoded optically as vacuum and single photon states. We show that a universal set of non-deterministic gates can be constructed using linear optics and photon counting. We investigate the efficacy of a test gate given realistic detector efficiencies.
