Abstract
We investigate an novel implementation of a Toffoli gate using multiple independent auxiliary photons prepared beforehand in single-qubit states. This gate can be performed nondestructively with entanglement swapping via the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state analysis. We evaluate the performance of the proposed Toffoli gate with the fidelity based on different computation bases. The multi-qubit-entanglement gate is no longer theoretical since it can be implemented in principle with single-qubit photons.
