The physics of optical computing

open access: yesNature Reviews Physics, 2023
There has been a resurgence of interest in optical computing over the past decade, both in academia and in industry, with much of the excitement centered around special-purpose optical computers for neural-network processing. Optical computing has been a topic of periodic study for over 50 years, including for neural networks three decades ago, and a ...

The Computational Complexity of Linear Optics [PDF]

open access: yesResearch in Optical Sciences, 2011
We give new evidence that quantum computers -- moreover, rudimentary quantum computers built entirely out of linear-optical elements -- cannot be efficiently simulated by classical computers. In particular, we define a model of computation in which identical photons are generated, sent through a linear-optical network, then nonadaptively measured to ...

Models of optical quantum computing

open access: yesNanophotonics, 2017
I review some work on models of quantum computing, optical implementations of these models, as well as the associated computational power. In particular, we discuss the circuit model and cluster state implementations using quantum optics with various ...

Optical Quantum Computation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We review the field of Optical Quantum Computation, considering the various implementations that have been proposed and the experimental progress that has been made toward realizing them. We examine both linear and nonlinear approaches and both particle and field encodings.

Optical Computing and Computational Complexity

open access: yes, 2006
This work concerns the computational complexity of a model of computation that is inspired by optical computers. The model is called the continuous space machine and operates in discrete timesteps over a number of two-dimensional images of fixed size and arbitrary spatial resolution.
