Abstract

Quantum is an emerging technology in future computers. Reversibility is the main advantage of quantum computers. In conventional computers, the computation is irreversible i.e. the input bits are lost once the logic block generates the output and input bits cannot be restored but it can be done in reversible computation because in reversible computation the inputs and outputs have a one-to-one correspondence. Therefore, a reversible gate input could even be uniquely determined from their output which leads to less power consumption. Hence the complexity of the digital circuits can be reduced by using reversible computing. In quantum computer to perform reversible operations, we need to implement the reversible gates using quantum gates. In this paper, we discussed various reversible logic gates like Feynman, Toffoli, R, Peres and TR gates using basic quantum gates like CNOT, Pauli, Swap gates and their implementation using IBM quantum experience.
