Abstract
Qudit-based quantum devices can outperform qubit-based ones, but a programmable qudit-based quantum computing device is still missing. Here, the authors fill this gap using a programmable silicon photonic chip employing ququart-based encoding, showing the scaling advantages compared to the qubit counterpart.
