We propose a simpler and more efficient scheme for the implementation of the multi-valued Grover's quantum search. The multi-valued search generalizes the original Grover's search by replacing qubits with qudits --- quantum systems of $d$ discrete states. The qudit database is exponentially larger than the qubit database and thus it requires fewer particles to control. The Hadamard gate, which is the key elementary gate in the qubit implementation of Grover's search, is replaced by a $d$-dimensional (complex-valued) unitary matrix $F$, the only condition for which is to have a column of equal moduli elements irrespective of their phases; it can be realized through any physical interaction, which achieves an equal-weight superposition state. An example of such a transformation is the $d$-dimensional discrete Fourier transform, used in earlier proposals; however, its construction is much more costly than that of the far simpler matrix $F$. We present examples of how such a transform $F$ can be constructed in realistic qudit systems in a \emph{single} interaction step.
