Popis: The two-qubit controlled-not (C-NOT) gate is an essential component in the construction of a gate-based quantum computer. In fact, its operation, combined with single qubit rotations allows to realise any quantum circuit. Several strategies have been adopted in order to build quantum gates, among them the photonic one offers the dual advantage of excellent isolation from the external environment and ease of manipulation at the single qubit level. Here we adopt a scalable time-multiplexed approach in order to build a fully reconfigurable architecture capable of implementing a post-selected interferometric scheme that implements the C-NOT operation with a fidelity of $(93.8\pm1.4)\%$. We use our experimental platform to generate the four Bell states.
