Quantum erasers and probing classifications of entanglement via nuclear magnetic resonance

Grum Teklemariam, Evan M. Fortunato, Marco A. Pravia +5 more

We report the implementation of two- and three-spin quantum erasers using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Quantum erasers provide a means of manipulating quantum entanglement, an important resource for quantum information processing. Here, we first use a two-spin system to illustrate the essential features of quantum erasers. The extension to a three-spin ``disentanglement eraser'' shows that entanglement in a subensemble can be recovered if a proper measurement of the ancillary system is carried out. Finally, we use the same pair of orthogonal decoherent operations used in quantum erasers to probe the two classes of entanglement in tripartite quantum systems: the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state and the W state. A detailed presentation is given of the experimental decoherent control methods that emulate the loss of phase information in strong measurements, and the use of NMR decoupling techniques to implement partial trace operations.

Experimental demonstration of an entanglement swapping operation and improved control in NMR quantum-information processing

Nicolas Boulant, Karina Montilla Edmonds, Jerry Zhijian Yang +2 more

We demonstrate the implementation of an entanglement swapping operation on a four-qubit liquid-state nuclear-magnetic-resonance (NMR) quantum-information processor. We use this experiment as a benchmark to illustrate the progress made in the field of quantum control using strongly modulating pulses and a correction scheme for removing distortions introduced by the nonlinearities in the transmitter and probe circuits. The advances include compensating for incoherent errors caused by the spatial variation of the system Hamiltonian in the NMR sample. The goal of these control sequences is to cause the collapse of the Kraus operator-sum representation of the superoperator into one unitary operator so that the ensemble appears to evolve as one coherent whole.

Quantum control based on solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance and its applications

Liqiang Zhao, Yuchen LI, Yin Haochuan +3 more

Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has emerged as an important technique for material characterization, finding extensive applications across a diverse range of disciplines including physics, materials science, chemistry, and biology. Its utility stems from the ability to probe the local atomic environments and molecular dynamics within solid materials, which provides information on the composition of the material. In recent years, the scope of solid-state NMR has expanded into the realm of quantum information science and technology, where its abundant many-body interactions pulse control methodologies make it have significant research value and application potential. This paper offers a comprehensive overview of the research objects and theoretical underpinnings of solid-state NMR, delving into the critical nuclear spin interaction mechanisms and their corresponding Hamiltonian forms. These interactions, which include dipolar coupling, chemical shift anisotropy, and quadrupolar interactions, are fundamental to the interpretation of NMR spectra and the understanding of material properties at the atomic level. Moreover, the paper introduces typical dynamical control methods employed in the manipulation of solid-state nuclear spins. Techniques such as dynamical decoupling, which mitigates the effects of spin-spin interactions to extend coherence times, and magic-angle spinning, which averages out anisotropic interactions to yield high-resolution spectra. These methods are essential for enhancing the sensitivity and resolution of NMR experiments, enabling the extraction of detailed structural and dynamic information from complex materials. Then we introduce some recent advancements in quantum control based on solid-state NMR, such as nuclear spin polarization enhancement techniques, which include dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) and cross polarization (CP), significantly boost the sensitivity of NMR measurements. Additionally, the control techniques of Floquet average Hamiltonians are mentioned, showcasing their role in the precise manipulation of quantum states and the realization of quantum dynamics. Finally, the paper presents a series of seminal research works that illustrate the application of solid-state NMR quantum control technologies in the field of quantum simulation. These studies demonstrate how solid-state NMR can be leveraged to simulate and investigate quantum many-body systems, providing valuable insights into quantum phase transitions, entanglement dynamics, and other phenomena relevant to quantum information science. By bridging the gap between fundamental research and practical applications, solid-state NMR continues to play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of quantum materials and technologies.
