Abstract:

We did the first experiment of unconditional quantum teleportation at Caltech in 1998[1]. Then we did various related experiments like quantum teleportation network[2], teleportation of Schrödinger’s cat state[3], and deterministic quantum teleportation of photonic qubits[4]. We invented the scheme of teleportation-based quantum computing in 2013[5]. In this scheme, we can multiplex quantum information in the time domain and we can build a large-scale optical quantum computer only with four squeezers, five beam splitters, and two optical delay lines[6]. For universal quantum computing with this scheme, we need a nonlinear measurement and we invented the efficient way[7]. We recently succeeded in the realization[8]. Our present goal is to build a super quantum computer with 100GHz clock frequency and hundred cores, which can solve any problems faster than conventional computers without efficient quantum algorithms like Shor’s algorithm. Toward this goal, we started to combine our optical quantum computer with 5G technologies[9].
