Motivation
• Many practical quantum technolgieshave been achieved with linear optics(LO).
• Progress in LO quantum computationwith photonic integrated circuits (PIC)
• Goal: recipes for translating quantumalgorithms into practical LO schemes
Linear optics (LO)
• Photons manipulated by a network of phase shifters and beam splitters
