Abstract
Measurement-based quantum computation can achieve universal quantum computation via simply performing single-qubit measurements alone on an entangled resource state. Instead of the canonical resource state–cluster state, we pay great attention to another resource state, the Affleck–Kennedy–Lieb–Tasaki (AKLT) state, which is a nondegenerate ground state of a nearest-neighbor two-body interaction Hamiltonian. We propose an optical scheme to generate a two-dimensional AKLT state defined on the honeycomb lattice. In our proposal, three photons from different singlet states are projected onto a spin- particle comprising the AKLT state with maximum success probability . We also show the controlled-NOT gate can be implemented on this photonic AKLT state via projective measurement using linear optics and photodetection.
