Photon counting schemes and performance of non-deterministic nonlinear gates in linear optics
Photon counting schemes and performance of non-deterministic nonlinear gates in linear optics
The performance of nondeterministic nonlinear gates in linear optics relies on the photon counting scheme being employed and the efficiencies of the detectors in such schemes. We assess the performance of the nonlinear sign gate, which is a critical component of linear optical quantum computing, for two standard photon counting …
