The diagram simulates our algorithm for playing cards. The immediate effect of measuring one qubit on the others is similar to covert communication between players. Quantum computers use this effect to win the game with a higher probability compared to classical players. The diagram combines from left to right: 1) card game, 2) quantum circuit, 3) coin lottery (probability), 4) measurement of the qubits, 5) use of a classical algorithm that reduces the amount of noise, 6) analysis of the results.

Design of the photonic structure that traps two photons inside. The photons move along the horizontal direction, each one along the arm of the cross. The holes are positioned so that the two photons are captured at the center point where the two arms of the cross cross. The blue and red curves represent the intensity of the electric fields of the corresponding photons. The photons react due to the non-linearity of the crystal that forms the cross.
