CNOT and Bell-state analysis in the weak-coupling cavity QED regime

arXiv:1004.1414 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.160503

Abstract

We propose an interface between the spin of a photon and the spin of an electron confined in a quantum dot embedded in a microcavity operating in the weak coupling regime. This interface, based on spin selective photon reflection from the cavity, can be used to construct a CNOT gate, a multi-photon entangler and a photonic Bell-state analyzer. Finally, we analyze experimental feasibility, concluding that the schemes can be implemented with current technology.
