Abstract

In this work, quantum correlations in two model systems which can be invesitgated by means of solid-state NMR are considered. The first is a two-spin system in NMR spin-locking experiment, where two schemes of spin-locking are considered. Concurrence is calculated for both schemes assuming the initial thermodynamic equilibrium state. Quantum discord is calculated analytically in the high-temperature approximation. The second model system is the spin-1/2 chain with the XY interaction, where the transfer of multiple quantum (MQ) coherences from one end of the chain to another is studied. The conditions under which the density matrix of the receiver is a block-scaled version of the sender’s density matrix are found.

Quantum entanglement and quantum discord in dimers in multiple quantum NMR experiments

S. A. Gerasev, E. I. Kuznetsova

Quantum correlations in multiple quantum (MQ) NMR experiments are investigated in two-spin systems (dimers). In the initial moment of time one spin is in a pure quantum polarized state and the other spin is in the thermodynamic equilibrium state defined by the temperature of the sample. MQ NMR dynamics of dimers is investigated. It is shown that MQ NMR coherences of only the zeroth and second orders emerge in such a system. The intensities of those coherences are calculated. Entangled states appear in the course of the system evolution in the MQ NMR experiment. The quantum discord is obtained in the high temperature approximation.

Multiple quantum nuclear magnetic resonance in one-dimensional quantum spin chains

Edward B. Fel’dman, Serge Lacelle

Multiple quantum (MQ) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin dynamics are investigated analytically in infinite one-dimensional (1D) chains of spins 1/2. The representation of spin 1/2 operators with fermion field operators allows to calculate exactly the spin density operator, and hence NMR observables, under a variety of different conditions for 1D spin systems. The exact expressions are valid for all times and for a macroscopic number of coupled spins. The calculations for a 1D spin system initially at thermal equilibrium, and evolving under a 2-quantum/2-spin average dipolar Hamiltonian, in the presence of nearest-neighbor dipolar interactions yield MQ NMR spectra with 0- and 2-quantum coherences only. For a nonequilibrium initial condition with transverse magnetization, the analogous spin dynamics calculations produce MQ NMR spectra with all possible coherences of odd orders. Calculations at the level of perturbation theory, which include next-nearest-neighbor dipolar interactions, generate MQ spectra with higher even order coherences for equilibrium initial condition and evolution under a 2-quantum/2-spin propagator. Consideration of multiple spin correlations, 0-quantum coherences, and rf pulse imperfections are also presented. The relevance and implications of these theoretical results for comparison with the recent MQ NMR experiments of Yesinowski et al. on materials with quasi-one-dimensional distributions of spins, and for MQ NMR of solids in general are discussed.

Experimental and theoretical investigations of quantum state transfer and decoherence processes in quasi-one-dimensional systems in multiple-quantum NMR experiments

G. A. Bochkin, S. I. Doronin, Sergey G. Vasil’ev +2 more

Multiple quantum (MQ) NMR methods1 are applied to the analysis of various problems of quantum information processing. It is shown that the two-spin/two-quantum Hamiltonian1 describing MQ NMR dynamics is related to the flip-flop Hamiltonian of a one-dimensional spin system in the approximation of the nearest neighbor interactions. As a result, it is possible to organize quantum state transfer along a linear chain. MQ NMR experiments are performed on quasi-one-dimensional chains of 19F nuclei in calcium fluorapatite Ca5(PO4)3F. Relaxation of the MQ NMR coherences is considered as the simplest model of decoherence processes. A theory of the dipolar relaxation of the MQ NMR coherences in one-dimensional systems is developed. A good agreement of the theoretical predictions and the experimental data is obtained.

Multiple quantum NMR dynamics in dipolar ordered spin systems

Serge I. Doronin, Edward B. Fel’dman, E. I. Kuznetsova +2 more

We investigate analytically and numerically the multiple-quantum (MQ) NMR dynamics in systems of nuclear spins $1∕2$ coupled by the dipole-dipole interactions in the case of the dipolar ordered initial state. We suggest two different methods of MQ NMR. One of them is based on the measurement of the dipolar temperature in the quasiequilibrium state which is established after the time of order ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{\mathit{loc}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ (${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{\mathit{loc}}$ is the dipolar local field) after the MQ NMR experiment. The other method uses an additional resonance ${(\ensuremath{\pi}∕4)}_{y}$ pulse after the preparation period of the standard MQ NMR experiment in solids. Many-spin clusters and correlations are created faster in such experiments than in the usual MQ NMR experiments and can be used for the investigation of many-spin dynamics of nuclear spins in solids.

Solid-state multiple quantum NMR in quantum information processing: exactly solvable models

Edward B. Fel’dman, Alexey N. Pyrkov, Alexander Ivanovich Zenchuk

Multiple quantum (MQ) NMR is an effective tool for the generation of a large cluster of correlated particles, which, in turn, represent a basis for quantum information processing devices. Studying the available exactly solvable models clarifies many aspects of the quantum information. In this study, we consider two exactly solvable models in the MQ NMR experiment: (i) the isolated system of two spin-1/2 particles (dimers) and (ii) the large system of equivalent spin-1/2 particles in a nanopore. The former model is used to describe the quantum correlations and their relations with the MQ NMR coherences, whereas the latter helps one to model the creation and decay of large clusters of correlated particles.

Dynamics of entangled states of nuclear spins in solids

Serge I. Doronin

We investigated dynamics of entangled states on the basis of multiple-quantum (MQ) NMR methods. A time evolution of MQ coherences of nuclear spins coupled by the dipole-dipole interactions (DDI) in solids is simply connected with dynamics of quantum entangled states. We studied analytically dynamics of the entangled states for two- and three-spin systems. In this case dynamics of the quantum entanglement is uniquely determined by the time evolution of MQ coherences of the second order. The real part of the density matrix describing MQ dynamics in solids is responsible for MQ coherences of the zeroth order while its imaginary part is responsible for the second order. Thus, one can conclude that dynamics of the entanglement is connected with transitions from the real part of the density matrix to the imaginary one and vice versa.
