In this study, we examine how the quantum circuit of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) can be optimized from two aspects, i.e., number of qubits and T-depth. To reduce the number of qubits, we present three kinds of improved quantum circuits of S-box for different phases in the AES. We found that the number of qubits in the round function can be decreased by introducing the circuit sending |a & rang; to |S (a)& rang;. As a result, compared with the previous quantum circuits where 400/640/768 qubits are required, our circuits of AES-128/-192/-256 only require 270/334/398 qubits. To reduce the T-depth, we propose a new circuit of AES's S-box with a T-depth of 4. Accordingly, the T-depth of our AES-128/-192/-256 quantum circuits become 80/80/84 instead of 120/120/126 in a previous study.
