We demonstrate a novel experimental toolset that enables irreversible multi-qubit operations on a quantum platform. To exemplify our approach, we realize two elementary nonunitary operations: the OR and NOR gates. The electronic states of…

We show, within the circuit model, how any quantum computation can be efficiently performed using states with only real amplitudes (a result known within the Quantum Turing Machine model). This allows us to identify a 2-qubit (in fact…
