In this study, we propose the quantum algorithm based on the unitary coupled cluster linear response theory for excited-state calculations with single and double excitations, denoted as qUCCSD-LR. Instead of the standard eigenvalue-problem-based scheme, the algorithm utilizes the dynamical-polarizability-based scheme, where the pole relative to the frequency of an external electric field corresponds to an excited state. Numerical applications of the qUCCSD-LR method to H2 could reproduce the dynamical polarizabilities, excitation energies and oscillator strengths obtained by the standard CCSD-LR method. Furthermore, potential energy curves for the double bond rotation in the ground and excited states of C2H4 were accurately calculated by the proposed method.
