Unlike classical digital computers in which a bit can represent either 1 or 0 at any time, quantum computers use a two-level system, i.e., a qubit, to implement logical operations based on quantum mechanical laws, which can represent both values at once. Owing to the superposition property of qubits, quantum computers have natural parallel processing advantages and thus have potential to exceed the computational efficiency of classical computers for particular tasks. Quantum logic gates are the generalization of classical logic gates in computational networks. It has been proved that two-qubit quantum gates together with one-qubit quantum gates are adequate for constructing networks with any possible quantum computational property. Directional couplers are the most critical elementsfor constructing the quantum gates. In recent years, photonic quantum technologies have emerged as a promising experimental platform for quantum computing. Single photons have robust noise resistance, long coherence time, high transmission speed and great compatibility with other systems. They can be easily manipulated and encoded in any of several degrees of freedom, for example, polarization, path, spatial mode or time bin. Optical waveguide technology enables the realizing of complex optical schemes comprised of many elements with desired scalability, stability and miniaturization. Femtosecond laser direct writing of waveguide has been adopted as a powerful tool for integrated quantum photonics with characteristics of rapidness, cost-effectiveness, mask-less and single-step process. In particular, it has the ability to build arbitrary three-dimensional circuits directly inside bulk materials, which is impossible to achieve with conventional lithography. In this article we review the femtosecond laser writing and quantum characterization of directional coupler and important one-qubit and two-qubit optical quantum logic gates, such as Hadamard gate, Pauli-X gate, controlled-NOT gate, and controlled-Phase gate. The qubits in these gates are usually encoded through optical paths or polarizations of photons. The key to the realization of polarization-encoded one-qubit gates is to achieve flexible wave-plate operations, which is described in detail. Controlled-NOT gate and controlled-phase gate are the most crucial two-qubit gates in the linear optics computation and sometimes they can be converted into each other by adding some one-qubit gates or special superposition states. Many different kinds of waveguide circuits have been used to implement these two-qubit gates. The outlook and challenges for the femtosecond laser writing of three-qubit gates, such as Toffoli gate and Fredkin gate, are briefly introduced.

CNOT gates (first andlast two-qubit gates) operate as normal on the qubit levels andimplement the identity if the target is in the qutrit level (|2〉). Similarly for the CZ gate (middle two-qubit gate). The XA gate flips thequtrit between the states |0〉 and |2〉. The sign change occurs on the|1,0,1〉 component. (b) A nondeterministic, post-selected, opticalrealization of a Toffoli gate[79]. Each input qubit is represented bytwo modes (waveguide paths). An additional target mode is introduced in the central part of the diagram. DCs are represented as black lines with their reflectivity indicated to the right. A phase flip occurs by reflection off the surface indicated by a dotted line. If we take occupation of the top mode of each qubit to represent logical |0〉 and occupation of the bottom mode to represent logical |1〉, then the circuit implements a Toffoli gate in which a phase flip is only applied to the element |000〉.

Figure 18. Toffoli and controlled-unitary experimental layout[80]. (a) Conceptual logic circuit. A polarizing beam splitter temporarily expands the Hilbert space of the target information carrier, from a polarization-encoded photonic qubit to a multi-level system distributed across polarization and longitudinal spatial mode. Information in the bottom rail (b) bypasses the two-qubit gates. Detection of a photon at D1 heralds a successful implementation; (b), (c) Experimental circuit and optical source. An inherently stable polarization interferometer using two calcite beam displacers is used. PPBS, partially polarizing beam splitter; SPCM, single-photon counting module; PDC, parametric down conversion; SHG, second-harmonic generation.
图 19 利用体光学元件在自由空间中实现Fredkin门的两种实验方案 (a)早期实验方案, 控制比特态决定相位门的相位变化, 该相位门两个CNOT门构成, CNOT操作基于部分偏振分束器上的双光子干涉实现, 入射到两个CNOT门的两光子态编码控制比特输入态, 使其从非纠缠的
$\left( {\alpha {{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}} + \beta {{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}}} \right)/\sqrt 2 $ 态以1/2的概率转化为$\left( {\alpha {{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{1in}}}}{{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}} + \beta {{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}}{{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}}} \right)/\sqrt 2 $ 纠缠态; (b)简化的实验方案, 控制比特态直接制备于$\left( {\alpha {{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{1in}}}}{{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}} + \beta {{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}}{{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}}} \right)/\sqrt 2 $ 纠缠态上, 当在输出端口(T1out, T2out, C1out, C2out)同时探测到光子时代表门操作成功, 概率为1/162; BS, 分束器; PBS, 偏振分束器; PPBS, 部分偏振分束器; Detector, 探测器; Phaseshifter, 相移器; Mirror, 反射镜; Polarizer, 偏振片; Half-wave plate, 半波片; Quarter-wave plate, 四分之一波片; Interferencefilter, 干涉滤波片; BBO crystal, BBO晶体[88, 89]Figure 19. Two kinds of free-space experimental layouts for Fredkin gate. (a) Original proposal by Fiurášek. The phase of the quantum phase gate (QPG) is changed by a control qubit: φ = 0 (
${\text{π}}$ ) when the control qubit is |0〉(|1〉). The QPG is realized by combining two CNOT gates, which are based on the two-photon interferences at the partially polarizingbeam splitters. The state of the control qubit is encoded into the state of the two photons incident to the CNOT gates by using an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) source and a quantum parity check: the encoder transforms the input state of the control photon$\left( {\alpha {{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}} + \beta {{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}}} \right)/\sqrt 2 $ into a state$\left( {\alpha {{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{1in}}}}{{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}} + \beta {{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}}{{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}}} \right)/\sqrt 2 $ with a probability of 1/2. (b) Simplifed scheme. The control qubit is directly encoded into the entangled photon pair$\left( {\alpha {{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{1in}}}}{{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}} + \beta {{\left| V \right\rangle }_{{C_{in}}}}{{\left| H \right\rangle }_{{C_{2in}}}}} \right)/\sqrt 2 $ generated via spontaneous parametric down-conversion and local polarization operations. The Fredkin operation is successful when the photons are simultaneously detected at the output ports (T1out, T2out, C1out, C2out) with a success probability of 1/162[88, 89]. -
