A scheme is proposed to implement quantum controlled-not(CNOT) gates with a resonant cavity and this quantum gate is used to carry out teleportation of an arbitrary single-atom superposition state.By using three level atoms,it can be realized through single-qubit operation and resonant interaction between two atoms and a resonant cavity.The interaction time between two atoms and the single-mode cavity is very short,which is important in view of decoherence.This character is one of the advantages of this scheme comparing to the scheme based on detuned cavity.
Zero-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) provides complementary analysis modalities to those of high-field NMR and allows for ultra-high-resolution spectroscopy and measurement of untruncated spin-spin interactions. Unlike for the high-field case, however, universal quantum control -- the ability to perform arbitrary unitary operations -- has not been experimentally demonstrated in zero-field NMR. This is because the Larmor frequency for all spins is identically zero at zero field, making it challenging to individually address different spin species. We realize a composite-pulse technique for arbitrary independent rotations of
1H and
13C spins in a two-spin system. Quantum-information-inspired randomized benchmarking and state tomography are used to evaluate the quality of the control. We experimentally demonstrate single-spin control for
13C with an average gate fidelity of
0.9960(2) and two-spin control via a controlled-not (CNOT) gate with an estimated fidelity of
0.99. The combination of arbitrary single-spin gates and a CNOT gate is sufficient for universal quantum control of the nuclear spin system. The realization of complete spin control in zero-field NMR is an essential step towards applications to quantum simulation, entangled-state-assisted quantum metrology, and zero-field NMR spectroscopy.
The two-qubit interaction Hamiltonian of a given physical implementation determines whether or not a two-qubit gate such as the controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate can be realized easily. It can be shown that, e.g., with the
XY interaction more than one two-qubit operation is required in order to realize the CNOT operation. Here we propose a two-qubit gate for the
XY interaction which combines the CNOT and SWAP operations. By using this gate quantum circuits can be implemented efficiently, even if only nearest-neighbor coupling between the qubits is available.
