contents This paper proposes a new optimized quantum block-ZXZ decomposition method [7,8,10] that results in more optimal quantum circuits than the quantum Shannon decomposition (QSD)[27], which was introduced in 2006 by Shende et al. The decomposition is applied recursively to generic quantum gates, and can take advantage of existing and future small-circuit optimizations. Because our method uses only one-qubit gates and uniformly controlled rotation-Z gates, it can easily be adapted to use other types of multi-qubit gates. With the proposed decomposition, a general 3-qubit gate can be decomposed using 19 CNOT gates (rather than 20). For general $n$-qubit gates, the proposed decomposition generates circuits that have $\frac{22}{48}4^n - \frac{3}{2}2^n +\frac{5}{3}$ CNOT gates, which is less that the best known exact decomposition algorithm by $(4^{n-2} -1)/3$ CNOT gates.
