We propose to design multispin quantum gates in which the input and output two-state systems (spins) are not necessarily identical. We describe the motivations for such studies and then derive an explicit general two-spin interaction Hamiltonian which accomplishes the quantum XOR gate function for a system of three spins: two input and one output.

In NMR quantum computing, spin states of spin-1/2 nuclei are called qubits. Quantum logic gates are represented by unitary matrices. As a universal gate, controlled-NOT (CNOT) is a two-qubit gate. For the IS (I = 1/2 and S = 1/2) spin system, two-qubit CNOT gate is represented by a 4 × 4 matrix. SWAP logic gate, which exchanges two quantum states, is constructed by CNOT gates. In this study, first, four-qubit CNOT gates are constructed for the IS (I = 3/2, S = 3/2) spin system. Then, by using these CNOT gates, a four-qubit SWAP logic gate is found. As an application and verification, an obtained SWAP logic gate is applied to the matrix representation of product operators for the IS (I = 3/2, S = 3/2) spin system. SWAP logic gate can also be presented by an NMR pulse sequence. By using the product operator theory, the pulse sequence of the SWAP logic gate is applied to product operators of the IS (I = 3/2, S = 3/2) spin system. The expected exchange results are obtained for both the matrix representation and the pulse sequence of SWAP logic gate.

Three Zeeman levels of spin-1 electron or nucleus are called as qutrits in quantum computation. Then, ISK (I = 1, S = 1, K = 1) spin system can be represented as three-qutrit states. Quantum circuits and algorithms consist of quantum logic gates. By using SWAP logic gate, two quantum states are exchanged. Topological quantum computing can be applied in quantum error correction. In this study, first, Yang-Baxter equation is modified for ISK (I = 1, S = 1, K = 1) spin system. Then three-qutrit topological SWAP logic gate is obtained. This SWAP logic gate is applied for three-qutrit states of ISK (I = 1, S = 1, K = 1) spin system. Three-qutrit SWAP logic gate is also applied to the product operators of ISK (I = 1, S = 1, K = 1) spin system. For these two applications, expected exchange results are found.
