Zhang Wen-hong
Abstract
Photonic crystal is a sort of artificial material,which has special characteristics.Recently,the application of photonic crystal in quantum computation has been introduced by Angelakis et al.In the paper,the implementation of the Grover search algorithm in two-dimensional planar photonic crystals for two-qubit system is proposed.By using the concepts of qubit and conditional quantum phase gate proposed by Angelakis et al,a more efficient and easily operated simulation of Grover algorithm is achieved.The details of scheme are given and related issues are discussed.
