Abstract
We present a scheme for locally concentrating a non-maximally entangled four-photon cluster state into a maximally-entangled four-photon cluster state. This scheme has a high success probability. The controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate is a crucial ingredient in this scheme, and we use a nearly deterministic CNOT gate, which is similar with that first introduced by Nemoto et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett., 2004, 93: 250502). This CNOT gate has a simple structure and does not need the strong nonlinearity.
