KLM protocol
open-in-new
<p>The KLM scheme or KLM protocol is an implementation of <a href="/facts/Linear_optical_quantum_computing/ghGgWLVM">linear optical quantum computing</a> (LOQC) developed in 2000 by Emanuel Knill, <a href="/facts/Raymond_Laflamme/EJ8qQqot">Raymond Laflamme</a> and <a href="/facts/Gerard_J._Milburn/2HbaGVoA">Gerard J. Milburn</a>. This protocol allows for the creation of universal <a href="/facts/Quantum_computers/nbbcgmvq">quantum computers</a> using solely <a href="/facts/Linear_optics/S9bS0xxz">linear optical</a> tools. The KLM protocol uses linear optical elements, <a href="/facts/Single-photon_source/nAmXRF58">single-photon sources</a> and photon detectors as resources to construct a quantum computation scheme involving only <a href="/facts/Ancilla_bit/pDfqX9DJ">ancilla</a> resources, <a href="/facts/Quantum_teleportation/2lWvQA4F">quantum teleportations</a> and <a href="/facts/Quantum_error_correction/lrUNMuob">error corrections</a>. </p>
