Key Points

  • This research aims to develop a resource-efficient scheme for linear optical quantum computation without using teleported gates.
  • Employs stable interferometry using the coherence length of photons
  • Generates cluster states from maximally polarization entangled photon pairs
  • Utilizes redundant encoding of qubits to handle destructive measurements
  • Achieves greater efficiency in implementation compared to previous proposals
  • Demonstrates universality and utility of generic parity measurements
  • Offers simplified operational framework for quantum computation

Abstract

We introduce a scheme for linear optics quantum computation, that makes no use of teleported gates, and requires stable interferometry over only the coherence length of the photons. We achieve a much greater degree of efficiency and a simpler implementation than previous proposals. We follow the "cluster state" measurement based quantum computational approach, and show how cluster states may be efficiently generated from pairs of maximally polarization entangled photons using linear optical elements. We demonstrate the universality and usefulness of generic parity measurements, as well as introducing the use of redundant encoding of qubits to enable utilization of destructive measurements--both features of use in a more general context.
