Abstract

The optical Kerr effect is a non-linear effect that can be used for single photons to interact with each other and induce cross-phase modulation. This interaction is fundamental for deterministic control-phase gates that lie at the heart of quantum computing algorithms and can also be used for the generation of cluster states or the implementation of non-linear optical switches.
