Nanoelectromechanical systems and quantum information processing
Alexander V. Tsukanov
Application of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMSs) as one of the structural components of quantum computers assumes a high level of coherent control of their state. In this case, such objects could perform certain functions in the coding, storing, and transportation of quantum information, and serve as auxiliary elements for processing such information. This paper contains a survey of basic theoretical and experimental results proving the possibility of coherent manipulations with phonon states of NEMSs, their cooling to the ground vibrational state, and organization of controllable interaction between them and other quantum information carriers.
