33. By using a λ/4 wave plate, the photon state | ψph 〉 =α |R〉 +β |L〉 can be converted to | ψph 〉 =α |H〉 +β |V〉 and vice versa.
34. Photon 3 could be replaced by a weak coherent light as discussed in Ref..

47. If we send a photon in an arbitrary superposition state (i.e., α |H〉 +β |V〉) to interact with the spin in a known superposition state, the state of the photon is transferred to the spin by measuring the reflected photon state; similarly if we send a photon in H or V state to interact with the spin in an arbitrary superposition state, the state of the spin is transferred to the photon by measuring the spin state

49. C. Y. Hu (unpublished). The deterministic optical quantum controlled-NOT gate can be achieved by sending three photons: the target, the control, and the ancilla to interact with the spin, followed by measuring the spin and the ancilla photon.
