    The Contribution of Hot Electron Spin Polarization to the Magnetotransport in a Spin-Valve Transistor at Finite Temperatures

    Full text link
    The effect of spin mixing due to thermal spin waves and temperature dependence of hot electron spin polarization to the collector current in a spin-valve transistor has been theoretically explored. We calculate the collector current as well as the temperature dependence of magnetocurrent at finite temperatures to investigate the relative importance of spin mixing and hot electron spin polarization. In this study the inelastic scattering events in ferromagnetic layers have been taken into account to explore our interests. The theoretical calculations suggest that the temperature dependence of hot electron spin polarization has substantial contribution to the magnetotransport in the spin-valve transistor.Comment: 8 pages and 6 figure

    Non-Destructive Discrimination of arbitrary set of orthogonal quantum states by NMR using Quantum Phase Estimation

    Full text link
    An algorithm based on quantum phase estimation, which discriminates quantum states nondestructively within a set of arbitrary orthogonal states, is described and experimentally verified by a NMR quantum information processor. The procedure is scalable and can be applied to any set of orthogonal states. Scalability is demonstrated through Matlab simulation

    Singlet state creation and Universal quantum computation in NMR using Genetic Algorithm

    Full text link
    Experimental implementation of a quantum algorithm requires unitary operator decomposition. Here we treat the unitary operator decomposition as an optimization problem and use Genetic Algorithm, a global optimization method inspired by nature's evolutionary process for operator decomposition. As an application, we apply this to NMR Quantum Information Processing and find a probabilistic way of doing universal quantum computation using global hard pulses. We also demonstrate efficient creation of singlet state (as a special case of Bell state) directly from thermal equilibrium using an optimum sequence of pulses
