We report on the first experimental realization of optimal linear-optical controlled phase gates for arbitrary phases. The realized scheme is entirely flexible in that the phase shift can be tuned to any given value. All such controlled phase gates are optimal in the sense that they operate at the maximum possible success probabilities that are achievable within the framework of any postselected linear-optical implementation. The quantum gate is implemented using bulk optical elements and polarization encoding of qubit states. We have experimentally explored the remarkable observation that the optimum success probability is not monotone in the phase.

Hardware efficient transpilation of quantum circuits to a quantum devices native gateset is essential for the execution of quantum algorithms on noisy quantum computers. Typical quantum devices utilize a gateset with a single two-qubit Clifford entangling gate per pair of coupled qubits, however, in some applications access to a non-Clifford two-qubit gate can result in more optimal circuit decompositions and also allows more flexibility in optimizing over noise. We demonstrate calibration of a low error non-Clifford Controlled-$frac{pi}{2}$ phase (CS) gate on a cloud based IBM Quantum computing using the Qiskit Pulse framework. To measure the gate error of the calibrated CS gate we perform non-Clifford CNOT-Dihedral interleaved randomized benchmarking. We are able to obtain a gate error of $5.9(7) times 10^{-3}$ at a gate length 263 ns, which is close to the coherence limit of the associated qubits, and lower error than the backends standard calibrated CNOT gate.
We design optimal interferometric schemes for implementation of two-qubit linear optical quantum filters diagonal in the computational basis. The filtering is realized by interference of the two photons encoding the qubits in a multiport linear optical interferometer, followed by conditioning on presence of a single photon in each output port of the filter. The filter thus operates in the coincidence basis, similarly to many linear optical unitary quantum gates. Implementation of the filter with linear optics may require an additional overhead in terms of reduced overall success probability of the filtering and the optimal filters are those that maximize the overall success probability. We discuss in detail the case of symmetric real filters and extend our analysis also to asymmetric and complex filters.
We propose an architecture for a high-fidelity deterministic controlled-phase gate between two photonic qubits using bulk optical nonlinearities in near-term feasible photonic integrated circuits. The gate is enabled by converting travelling continuous-mode photons into stationary cavity modes using strong classical control fields that dynamically change the cavity-waveguide coupling rate. This process limits the fidelity degrading noise pointed out by Shapiro [J. Shapiro, Phys. Rev. A, 73, 2006] and Gea-Banacloche [J. Gea-Banacloche, Phys. Rev. A, 81, 2010]. We show that high-fidelity gates can be achieved with self-phase modulation in $chi^{scriptscriptstyle(3)}$ materials as well as second-harmonic generation in $chi^{scriptscriptstyle(2)}$ materials. The gate fidelity asymptotically approaches unity with increasing storage time for a fixed duration of the incident photon wave packet. Further, dynamically coupled cavities enable a trade-off between errors due to loss and wave packet distortions since loss does not affect the ability to emit wave packets with the same shape as the incoming photons. Our numerical results show that gates with $99%$ fidelity are feasible with near-term improvements in cavity loss using LiNbO$_3$ or GaAs.
Quantum information science addresses how the processing and transmission of information are affected by uniquely quantum mechanical phenomena. Combination of two-qubit gates has been used to realize quantum circuits, however, scalability is becoming a critical problem. The use of three-qubit gates may simplify the structure of quantum circuits dramatically. Among them, the controlled-SWAP (Fredkin) gates are essential since they can be directly applied to important protocols, e.g., error correction, fingerprinting, and optimal cloning. Here we report a realization of the Fredkin gate for photonic qubits. We achieve a fidelity of 0.85 in the computational basis and an output state fidelity of 0.81 for a 3-photon Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state. The estimated process fidelity of 0.77 indicates that our Fredkin gate can be applied to various quantum tasks.
We propose a scalable version of a KLM CNOT gate based upon integrated waveguide microring resonators (MRR), vs the original KLM-approach using beam splitters (BS). The core element of our CNOT gate is a nonlinear phase-shift gate (NLPSG) using three MRRs, which we examine in detail. We find an expanded parameter space for the NLPSG over that of the conventional version. Whereas in all prior proposals for bulk optical realizations of the NLPSG the optimal operating point is precisely a single zero dimensional manifold within the parameter space of the device, we find conditions for effective transmission amplitudes which define a set of one dimensional manifolds in the parameters spaces of the MRRs. This allows for an unprecedented level flexibility in operation of the NLPSG that and allows for the fabrication of tunable MRR-based devices with high precision and low loss.
