Photons and linear optical components, such as mirrors and beam splitters, have been touted as a practical means to make a quantum computer. But what does it really take to build, block by block, such a linear optical quantum computer? Ying Li from the University of Oxford, UK, and colleagues now describe a theoretical analysis that puts numbers on the technical resources required to build such a machine.
