Self-stabilized quantum optical Fredkin gate

Self-stabilized quantum optical Fredkin gate.

The quantum optical Fredkin gate is an indispensable resource for networkable quantum applications. Its performance in practical implementations, however, is limited fundamentally by the inherent quantum fluctuations of the pump waves. We demonstrate a method to overcome this drawback by exploiting stimulated Raman scattering in fiber-based implementations. Using a Sagnac fiber-loop switch as a...

A quantum Fredkin gate.

Minimizing the resources required to build logic gates into useful processing circuits is key to realizing quantum computers. Although the salient features of a quantum computer have been shown in proof-of-principle experiments, difficulties in scaling quantum systems have made more complex operations intractable. This is exemplified in the classical Fredkin (controlled-SWAP) gate for which, de...

An Extension to DNA Based Fredkin Gate Circuits: Design of Reversible Sequential Circuits using Fredkin Gates

In recent years, reversible logic has emerged as a promising computing paradigm having its applications in low power computing, quantum computing, nanotechnology, optical computing and DNA computing. The classical set of gates such as AND, OR, and EXOR are not reversible. Recently, it has been shown how to encode information in DNA and use DNA amplification to implement Fredkin gates. Furthermo...
