Abstract
Transverse modes of optical fields are proposed to be used as qubits for the implementation of quantum Hadamard gate. Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI), phase shifter, y-junction beam splitters and other optical devices are utilized to realize a quantum Hadamard gate. The possibility of this encoding scheme was designed, simulated and verified through rigorous numerical analyses using the Beam propagation method. The proposed gate has the potential of being more compact and easily realizable than some other optical implementation proposals since it is based on planar light wave circuit technology and can be constructed very easily by using a Mach-Zehnder Interferometer. The Results proved that the design is able to perform the required Hadamard transformation and the conclusion was reached that the model was a successful implementation of a quantum Hadamard gate.
