Quantum Teleportation without Irreversible Detection: NMR-Experiment

Yasushi Kondo

Published Sep 25, 2007• 14 citations
Publisher

Abstract

We implement a quantum teleportation algorithm in NMR with 13 C-labeled L -alanine. Here three 13 C-nuclear spins are qubits and H-nuclear spins are employed as a well-defined quantum mechanical interface to a detector. Our experiment is considered as a realization of “quantum teleportation without irreversible detection” and is helpful for understanding the principle of quantum teleportation.

An Introduction to Quantum Teleportation

Adam Miranowicz, Kiyoshi Tamaki

Recent experiments confirm that quantum teleportation is possible at least for states of photons and nuclear spins. The quantum teleportation is not only a curious effect but a fundamental protocol of quantum communication and quantum computing. The principles of the quantum teleportation and the entanglement swapping are explained, and physical realizations of teleportation of optical and atomic states are discussed.

[The NMR implementation of quantum algorithm].

Xuemei Luo

A quantum computer is a device that processes information in a quantum-mechanically coherent fashion. In principle, it can exploit coherent quantum interference and entanglement to perform computations, such as factoring large numbers or searching an unsorted database, more rapidly than classical computers. Noise, decoherence, and manufacturing problems make constructing large scale quantum computers difficult. Ion traps and optical cavities offer promising experimental approaches, but no quantum algorithm has yet been implemented with those systems. On the other hand, because of their natural isolation from the environment, nuclear spins are particularly good 'quantum bits', and their use for quantum computation is possible by applying nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques in an unconventional manner. Here, we report on the experimental implementation of a quantum algorithm using NMR to solve a purely mathematical problem in fewer steps than is possible classically. Our simple quantum computer can determine the type of an unknown function using fewer function 'calls' than is possible using a classical computer.

Spins as qubits: Quantum information processing by nuclear magnetic resonance

Dieter Suter, T. S. Mahesh

Storing information in quantum mechanical degrees of freedom and processing it by unitary transformation promises a new class of computers that can efficiently solve problems for which no efficient classical algorithms are known. The most straightforward implementation of this type of information processing uses nuclear spins to store the information and nuclear magnetic resonance for processing it. We discuss the basics of quantum information processing by NMR, with an emphasis on two fields of research: the design and implementation of robust logical gate operations and the loss of quantum information, which is known as decoherence.

Nuclear Spins as Quantum Testbeds: Singlet States, Quantum Correlations, and Delayed-choice Experiments

Soumya S. Roy

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) forms a natural test-bed to perform quantum information processing (QIP) and has so far proven to be one of the most successful quantum information processors. The nuclear spins in a molecule treated as quantum bits or qubits which are the basic building blocks of a quantum computer. The development of NMR over half a century puts it in a platform where we can utilize its excellent control techniques over an ensemble of spin systems and perform quantum computation in a highly controlled way. Apart from a successful quantum information processor, NMR is also a highly powerful quantum platform where many of the potentially challenging quantum mechanical experiments can be performed.

Quantum Information Processing by NMR using strongly coupled spins

T. S. Mahesh, Neeraj Sinha, Arindam Ghosh +5 more

The enormous theoretical potential of Quantum Information Processing (QIP) is driving the pursuit for its practical realization by various physical techniques. Currently Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has been the forerunner by demonstrating a majority of quantum algorithms. In NMR, spin systems consisting of coupled nuclear spins are utilized as qubits. In order to carry out QIP, a spin system has to meet two major requirements: (i) qubit addressability and (ii) mutual coupling among the qubits. It has been demonstrated that the magnitude of the mutual coupling among qubits can be increased by orienting the spin-systems in a liquid crystal matrix and utilizing the residual dipolar couplings. While utilizing residual dipolar couplings may be useful to increase the number of qubits, nuclei of same species (homonuclei) might become strongly coupled. In strongly coupled spin-systems, spins loose their individual identity of being qubits. We propose that even such strongly coupled spin-systems can be used for QIP and the qubit-manipulation can be achieved by transition-selective pulses. We demonstrate experimental preparation of pseudopure states, creation of maximally entangled states, implementation logic gates and implementation of Deutsch-Jozsa (DJ) algorithm in strongly coupled 2,3 and 4 spin systems. The energy levels of the strongly coupled 3 and 4 spin systems were obtained by using a Z-COSY experiment.
