In this work, we theoretically study and experimentally verify, in a classical light scenario, an optical implementation of a quantum CNOT logic gate manipulating the polarization and OAM degrees of freedom only with linear optical elements. [12] However, to implement nonlinear optical effects is a difficult task. Layered control stack that forms the framework of a quantum-computer architecture. Deutsch, David; Barenco, Adriano; Ekert, Artur (1995-06-08). \cos \theta & -i\sin \theta \\ [10][11], It was believed that adding nonlinearity to the linear optical network was sufficient to realize efficient quantum computation. An abstract way of defining linear-optics networks designed to perform quantum information tasks such as quantum gates is developed, which shows numerically and partially analytically for a wide class of states that the success probability of generating a NSS gate does not exceed 1/4, which to the authors' knowledge is the strongest bound to date. {\displaystyle t} [17] The boson sampling problem was solved in 200 seconds, they estimated that China's Sunway TaihuLight Supercomputer would take 2.5 billion years to solve - a quantum supremacy of around 10^14.
