Adiabatic transfer of coherences in a cluster of coupled nuclear spins
Jae‐Seung Lee, Kate E. Cardwell, Anatoly K. Khitrin
It is experimentally demonstrated that quantum coherences can be efficiently transferred using adiabatic energy-level crossing. In a cluster of six dipolar-coupled proton spins of benzene, oriented by a liquid-crystalline matrix, a single-quantum coherence between one pair of states has been adiabatically transferred to another pair of states, and the superposition survived even after ten successive energy-level crossings.
