SOQCS: A Stochastic Optical Quantum Circuit Simulator

Javier Osca Jiri Vala

Abstrak

Stochastic Optical Quantum Circuit Simulator (SOQCS) is a C++ and Python library which offers a framework to define, simulate and study quantum linear optical circuits in presence of various imperfections typically encountered in experiments. Quantum circuits can be defined from basic components, including emitters, linear optical elements, delays and detectors. The imperfections come from partial distinguishability of photons, lossy propagation media, unbalanced beamsplitters and non-ideal emitters and detectors for example. SOQCS also provides various simulator cores and tools to analyze the output. Furthermore, the configuration of detectors also includes postselection. SOQCS is developed using a modular approach in which different modules are applied in an automated easy to use manner. Furthermore, the modular approach allows for further extensions of the SOQCS capabilities in future.
