Therefore the square of the operator will be a diagonal matrix with all eigenvalues squared. The kinetic energy operator will then be given by  different eigenvalues in x and y spatial dimensions. We can now evaluate the unitary operator in it’s matrix form in order to construct quantum gates which can be later implemented in the quantum circuit. According to Eq. (4) the position operator is a diagonal matrix.
