Optimal synthesis of the Fredkin gate in a multilevel system by Wen-Qiang Liu, Hai-Rui Wei

“…The cost of a non-deterministic three-qubit Fredkin gate is further reduced to 4 nearest-neighbor CNOTs, and the success of such a gate is heralded by a single-photon detector. Our insights bridge the gap between the theoretical lower bound and the current best result for the n -qubit quantum computation.…”

Observing quantum coherence from photons scattered in free-space by Shihan Sajeed, Thomas Jennewein

“…Here we demonstrate a novel approach to transfer and recover quantum coherence from scattered, non-line-of-sight photons analyzed in a multimode and imaging interferometer for time-bins, combined with photon detection based on a 8 × 8 single-photon-detector-array. The observed time-bin visibility for scattered photons remained at a high 95% over a wide scattering angle range of −450 to +450, while the individual pixels in the detector array resolve or track an image in its field of view of ca. 0.5°. …”

Fast entanglement distribution with atomic ensembles and fluorescent detection by Brask, J. B., Jiang, L., Gorshkov, Alexey V., Sørensen, A. S., Lukin, M. D., Vuletic, Vladan

“…However, the entanglement rates and scalability of current approaches are limited by relatively low retrieval and single-photon detector efficiencies. We propose a scheme which makes use of fluorescent detection of stored excitations to significantly increase the efficiency of connection and hence the rate. …”
