Abstract

En 中文
Optical quantum computers represent qubits as photons created by laser and implement arbitrary quantum operations through Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) which is called linear optical quantum computing (LOQC). Since the number of qubits and quantum system is getting bigger, we need a scalable and universal quantum computing platform based on LOQC. In this work, we propose a software framework which can support a universal programming with flexibility of LOQC hardware configuration. The framework consists of four parts such as decomposer, mapper, controller, and user-interface controller. As an example, we show a use case of this framework for Bell state generation on Reck et al.'s MZI network.
