摘要: We propose a scheme for generating a hyperentangled four-photon cluster state that is simultaneously entangled in polarization modes and spatial modes. This scheme is based on linear optical elements, weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity, and homodyne detection. Therefore, it is feasible with current experimental technology.

关键词: hyperentangled cluster state, cross-Kerr nonlinearity, homodyne detection, controlled-Z gate
