Abstract

The pulse sequences of the logic operations used in quantum discrete Fourier transform are designed for the experiment of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR), and 2-qubit discrete Fourier transforms are implemented experimentally with NMR. The experimental errors are examined and methods for reducing the errors are proposed.

A quantum Fourier transform (QFT) has been implemented on a three qubit nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) quantum computer to extract the periodicity of an input state. Implementation of a QFT provides a first step towards the realization of Shor's factoring and other quantum algorithms. The experimental implementation of the QFT on a periodic state is presented along with a quantitative measure of its efficiency measured through state tomography. Experimentally realizing the QFT is a clear demonstration of the ability of NMR to control quantum systems.

Exhibition of the periodicity of Quantum Fourier Transformation in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

The remarkable capability of quantum Fourier transformation (QFT) to extract the periodicity of a given periodic function has been exhibited by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. Two separate sets of experiments were performed. In a full QFT, the periodicity were validated with state tomography and fidelity measurements. For a simplified QFT, the three-qubit pseudo-pure state was created by introducting an additional observer spin, and the spectra recorded on the observer spin showed intuitively the power of QFT\ to find the periodicity. Experimentally realizing the QFT provides a critical step to implement the renowned Shor's quantum factoring algorithm and many other algorithms. Moveover, it can be applied to the study of quantum chaos and other quantum information processing.

The Simulation of Quantum Fourier Transform

Yanhua Zhong

At present, it is one of various effective approaches for quantum algorithm to using the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiment technology. NMR uses radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic pulses to rotate the spins. By tuning the frequency of the RF-field to the precession frequency of a particular spin, the power of the applied pulse controls how much the spin will rotate. The axis of the rotation is determined by the direction of the applied RF-field. By selecting the appropriate RF pulses, arbitrary single-spin rotation can be carried out. In other words, using RF pulses we can perform any single-qubit operation. Communication between the qubits is accomplished through the spin-spin interaction in model. A simulation approach in this paper is described to realize quantum Fourier transform algorithm (QFT).

NMR experimental realization of seven-qubit D-J algorithm and controlled phase-shift gates with improved precision

Daxiu Wei, J. L. Luo, Xianping Sun +4 more

In this study, we report the experimental realization of seven-qubit Deutsch-Jozsa (D-J) algorithm and controlled phase-shift gates with improved precision using liquid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The experimental results have shown that transformationsU f in the seven-qubit D-J algorithm have been implemented with different pulse sequences, and whetherf is constant or balanced is determined by using only a single function call (U f ). Furthermore, we propose an experimental method to measure and correct the error in the controlled phase-shift gate that is simple and feasible in experiments, and can have precise phase shifts. These may offer the possibility of surmounting the difficulties of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in multi-qubit NMR quantum computers, more complicated experimental techniques, and the increase of gate errors due to using a large number of imperfect selective pulses. These are also applied to more complicated quantum algorithms with more qubits, such as quantum Fourier transformation and Shor’s algorithm.

Experimental technique for multi-qubit nuclear magnetic resonance system

Pan Jian, Yu Qi, Xinhua Peng

With the development of quantum information and quantum computation science, quantum information processor has been widely used in different areas such as quantum simulation, quantum computation and quantum metrology and so on. To make quantum computer come true, we need to increase the number of controllable qubits of the system and improve the controllability to perform complex quantum manipulation. As a good experimental testbed for quantum information processing, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin system provides rich and sophisticated quantum control methods. In recent years a lot of multi-qubit experiments have been performed on the platform and a series of experimental technologies have been developed. In this paper, we firstly explain the difficulties of multi-qubit NMR experiments. Then by focusing on the experiment of 7-qubit labelled pseudo-pure state preparation and other relevant experiments, we review the technologies in multi-qubit experiments. Using the radio frequency selective method, the inhomogeneities of the radio frequency pulses are reduced and the spectral resolution is improved. After performing 1/2 spin selective sequence, we can regard the three methyl protons in the sample of crotonic acid as a single 1/2 spin nucleus and treat the whole molecule as a 7-qubit quantum information processor. We utilize Gauss pulses, Hermite pulses, composite pulses and gradient ascent pulse engineering (GRAPE) pulses to implement basic /2 and rotation operations. The GRAPE pulses are calculated by subspace GRAPE program to speed up the computation greatly. The errors of the basic pulses caused by chemical shift and J-coupling evolution can be estimated by the program of pulse compilation. It divides the errors of the pulses into a series of post-errors and pre-errors. A program of sequence compilation is used to eliminate the accumulated error of the whole pulse sequence, reduce the number of pulses and optimize the experimental duration. A variety of methods of quantum state tomography have been proposed to improve the efficiency of reading out information about quantum state. As an experimental example, we combine the above experimental technologies and perform the experiment of 7-qubit labelled pseudo-pure state preparation by using the method of cat state preparation. The sequence of cat state preparation consists of three steps:encoding procedure, phase cycling and decoding procedure. We use 14 experiments to realize the phase cycling and acquire the final 7-qubit labelled pseudo-pure state. The total duration of experimental sequence is about 132 ms. All the readout spectra have the similar shapes to the theoretical expectations. Finally we give an outlook for further research in this direction.
