Abstract
A structure and implementation principles of a photon computer are proposed. Its functioning is based on effects of the interaction between coherent light wave systems generated by a laser source. The performance of photon computers, consumed energy, and physical sizes are estimated. These estimates show possible advantages of photon computers over electronic ones.
