Optical cluster state

An optical cluster state is a type of photonic quantum state that is now being studied for its potential applications in quantum computing and quantum information processing. Cluster states are a particular kind of multi-particle entangled state that can be used to implement measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC), where computations are carried out through a series of measurements performed on entangled states. ### Key Characteristics of Optical Cluster States: 1. **Entanglement**: Optical cluster states are strongly entangled states of photons.
