Abstract
The present invention concerns a scheme that allows to create a Quantum-to-Quantum Bernoulli Factory, wherein random bits and qubits can be generated given input qubits, using a quantum photonic system that can take advantage of the different information coding approaches using states of single photons According to the invention, inversion, multiplication and sum operations can be realized with photon qubits and can be concatenated without generating noise.
