Phys. Rev. A 68, 022313 (2003) [6 pages]Comparison of linear optics quantum-computation control-sign gates with ancilla inefficiency and an improvement to functionality under these conditionsReceived 2 March 2003; published 25 August 2003 We compare three proposals for nondeterministic control-sign gates implemented using linear optics and conditional measurements with nonideal ancilla mode production and detection. The simplified Knill-Laflamme-Milburn gate [Ralph et al., Phys. Rev. A 65, 012314 (2001)] appears to be the most resilient under these conditions. We also find that the operation of this gate can be improved by adjusting the beam splitter ratios to compensate to some extent for the effects of the imperfect ancilla. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
