Control of quantum operations is a crucial yet expensive construct for quantum computation. Efficient implementations of controlled operations often avoid applying control to certain subcircuits, which can significantly reduce the number of…
Modelling of photonic devices traditionally involves solving the equations of light-matter interaction and light propagation, and it is restrained by their applicability. Here we demonstrate an alternative modelling methodology by creating…
