Abstract

A quantum gate or quantum logic gate is an elementary quantum circuit working on a small number of qubits. It means that quantum gates can grasp two primary feature of quantum mechanics that are entirely out of reach for classical gates : superposition and entanglement. In simpler words quantum gates are reversible. In classical computing sets of logic gates are connected to construct digital circuits. Similarly, quantum logic gates operates on input states that are generally in superposition states to compute the output. In this paper the authors will discuss in detail what is single and multiple qubit gates and scope and challenges in quantum gates.
