Abstract:

The goals of this seedling program were to analyze requirements on key devices and algorithms to realize scalable photonic quantum information processing QIP systems that can significantly outperform classical conventional computing methods. Specifically, we investigated resources requirements for linear optical quantum computing to achieve scalable quantum computation and a detailed resource-cost vs. performance study for using all-optical quantum computing to build quantum repeaters for long-range quantum-secured communications viz., QKD.
