Nuclear Spins in a Nanoscale Device for Quantum Information Processing
Coherent oscillations between any two levels from four nuclear spin states of
I=3/2 have been demonstrated in a nanometre-scale NMR semiconductor device,
where nuclear spins are all-electrically controlled. Using this device, we
discuss quantum logic operations on two fictitious qubits of the I=3/2 system,
and propose a quantum state tomography scheme based on the measurement of
longitudinal magnetization, .Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
Use of Quadrupolar Nuclei for Quantum Information processing by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance: Implementation of a Quantum Algorithm
Physical implementation of Quantum Information Processing (QIP) by
liquid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), using weakly coupled spin-1/2
nuclei of a molecule, is well established. Nuclei with spin1/2 oriented in
liquid crystalline matrices is another possibility. Such systems have multiple
qubits per nuclei and large quadrupolar couplings resulting in well separated
lines in the spectrum. So far, creation of pseudopure states and logic gates
have been demonstrated in such systems using transition selective
radio-frequency pulses. In this paper we report two novel developments. First,
we implement a quantum algorithm which needs coherent superposition of states.
Second, we use evolution under quadrupolar coupling to implement multi qubit
gates. We implement Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm on a spin-3/2 (2 qubit) system. The
controlled-not operation needed to implement this algorithm has been
implemented here by evolution under the quadrupolar Hamiltonian. This method
has been implemented for the first time in quadrupolar systems. Since the
quadrupolar coupling is several orders of magnitude greater than the coupling
in weakly coupled spin-1/2 nuclei, the gate time decreases, increasing the
clock speed of the quantum computer.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figure
