Abstract
A quantum computation algorithm is demonstrated using single photons and linear optics. Quantum registers are realized by modes and polarization of photons, and the unitary transformations for them are implemented with linear optics. For each quantum computation, the answer to the Deutsch Jozsa problem for any 4 bit digit is given by a single-photon detection signal with a small error rate. The origin of the error is also studied and categorized according to the sources: systematic errors of quantum gates, phase relaxation, amplitude dumping, and misreadout. It is suspected that a demonstration of 11 qubits using linear optics anda single photon with less than a 20 % error rate is achievable by the technique used in the experiment. As a further objective, an idea to construct controlled-NOT gate using quantum phase gate (QPG) given by Chuang et. al., is introduced and experiments on the QPGs are also reviewed.
