Efficient fusion of photonic W-states with nonunitary partial-swap gates

We introduce a nonunitary partial-swap gate for fusing arbitrary small-sized photonic W-states into a large-scale entangled network of W-state efficiently without ancillary photons. A partial-swap gate is designed in an optical architecture based on linear optics elements. By introducing auxiliary d...
