Quantum phase gate for photonic qubits using only beam splitters and postselection
Open accessAbstract
We show that a beam splitter of reflectivity one-third can be used to realize a quantum phase gate operation if only the outputs conserving the number of photons on each side are postselected.

Hofmann and Takeuchi, (2002) and independently Ralph et al., (2002a, 2002b) developed quantum gates under the restriction of a two, or four-mode case, that is the successful operation of the gate can be verified if the two photons involved are detected in certain outputs.
“Hofmann and Takeuchi, (2002) and independently Ralph et al., (2002aRalph et al., ( , 2002b) ) developed quantum gates under the restriction of what is here called a two, or four-mode case, that is the successful operation of the gate can be verified if the two photons involved are detected in certain outputs”
From Multiphoton entanglement and interferometry (2012) · cites this paper as Hofmann and Takeuchi, 2002
The cz gate is relatively forgiving of the exact splitting ratios, making it suitable for a PPBS architecture.
“As originally anticipated in Ref. [13], the cz gate is relatively forgiving of the exact splitting ratios-making it an eminently suitable gate to be realised with a PPBS architecture.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
