利用仲氢诱导极化技术实现 Deutsch算法

核磁共振系统是实现量子计算的有效物理体系之一．但是随着量子位数的不断增加,运用核磁共振技术实现计算任务存在明显的局限性,原因之一是量子计算的初始态-赝纯态,随着量子位数的增加,信号指数性的衰减,量子位数越多制备赝纯态所需的脉冲序列越复杂,越不容易实现,不利于量子位数的扩展;另外,由于核磁共振中制备的赝纯态实际上也是一种混合态,用于实现量子信息任务时存在一定的争议．该文介绍的利用仲氢诱导极化技术(PHIP)制备出的实验初态,能够解决初态处于混合态的问题,并且信号强度显著增强,作者利用此态实现了 ALTADENA 条件下的两量子位的 Deutsch-Jozsa 量子算法和 PASADENA 条件下的三量子位的Deutsch-Like 量子算法．
     

Implementation of the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm violates nonlocal realism

The theoretical resource state for the implementation of the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm is a multiqubit pure uncorrelated state. We show that N-qubit pure uncorrelated quantum states cannot admit rotationally invariant nonlocal realistic theories with a violation factor of 3^N. We find the violation factor 3^Nwhen the measurement setup is entire range of settings for each of the observers, that is, considering rotationally invariant nonlocal realistic theories along with the property of a correlation function in the quantum theory. The implementation of the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm theoretically relying on N-qubit pure uncorrelated states rules out rotationally invariant nonlocal realism with a violation factor of 3^Nin an ideal case. Our analysis relies on the property of theoretical resource states for the algorithm. We cannot simulate the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm by using rotationally invariant nonlocal realistic theories due to the property of theoretical resource states for the algorithm.     

Preparing high purity initial states for nuclear magnetic resonance quantum computing

Here we demonstrate how parahydrogen can be used to prepare a two-spin system in an almost pure state which is suitable for implementing nuclear magnetic resonance quantum computation. A 12 ns laser pulse is used to initiate a chemical reaction involving pure parahydrogen (the nuclear spin singlet of H2). The product, formed on the micros time scale, contains a hydrogen-derived two-spin system with an effective spin-state purity of 0.916. To achieve a comparable result by direct cooling would require an unmanageable (in the liquid state) temperature of 6.4 mK or an impractical magnetic field of 0.45 MT at room temperature. The resulting spin state has an entanglement of formation of 0.822 and cannot be described by local hidden variable models.     

Use of non-adiabatic geometric phase for quantum computing by NMR

Geometric phases have stimulated researchers for its potential applications in many areas of science. One of them is fault-tolerant quantum computation. A preliminary requisite of quantum computation is the implementation of controlled dynamics of qubits. In controlled dynamics, one qubit undergoes coherent evolution and acquires appropriate phase, depending on the state of other qubits. If the evolution is geometric, then the phase acquired depend only on the geometry of the path executed, and is robust against certain types of error. This phenomenon leads to an inherently fault-tolerant quantum computation. Here we suggest a technique of using non-adiabatic geometric phase for quantum computation, using selective excitation. In a two-qubit system, we selectively evolve a suitable subsystem where the control qubit is in state |1, through a closed circuit. By this evolution, the target qubit gains a phase controlled by the state of the control qubit. Using the non-adiabatic geometric phase we demonstrate implementation of Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm and Grover's search algorithm in a two-qubit system.

经典混沌系统在相应于初始相干态的量子子空间中的随机性

Poincare截面是反映经典系统是否达到混沌的有力手段,无规矩阵理论被看成是显示量子系统规则运动与不规则运动特征的有效方法．那么,当一个经典相点在混沌体系的某一能量面E₀上的不变环面被全部破坏后,与这一相点所对应的中心能量E₀等于E₀的相干态波包在它所占据的量子系统的子空间中有何表现呢？以原子核Lipkin模型为例,用重整化约化方法,对SU（3）群的广义相干态所占据的量子子空间进行了约化后对其中有关量的随机性作了考察,结果表明,在这样的等效子空间内能级间距的涨落,等效哈密顿量的矩阵元以及从可积体系的子空间到这一等效子空间的一一映射的矩阵元的分布均与无规矩阵理论的预言相符合,从而为进一步研究经典部分可积体系的量子表现奠定了基础. 关键词：     

Pairwise entanglement in symmetric multi-qubit systems

For pairs of particles extracted from a symmetric state of N two-level systems, the two-particle density matrix is expressed in terms of expectation values of collective spin operators for the large system. Results are presented for experimentally relevant examples of pure states: Dicke states | S, M>, spin coherent, and spin squeezed states, where only the symmetric subspace, S = N/2 is populated, and for thermally entangled mixed states populating also lower S values. The entanglement of the extracted pair is then quantified by a calculation of the concurrence, which provides directly the entanglement of formation of the pair.

Nonadiabatic Geometric Phase in Composite Systems and Its Subsystem

We point out that the time-dependent gauge transformation technique may be effective in investigating the nonadiabatic geometric phase of a subsystem in a composite system. As an example, we consider two uniaxially coupled spin -1/2 particles with one of particles driven by rotating magnetic field. The influences of coupling and precession frequency of the magnetic field on geometric phase are also discussed in detail.     

Implementing logic gates and the Deutsch-Jozsa quantum algorithm by two-dimensional NMR using spin- and transition-selective pulses

Quantum logical operations using two-dimensional NMR have recently been described using the scalar coupling evolution technique [J. Chem. Phys. 109, 10603 (1998)]. In the present paper, we describe the implementation of quantum logical operations using two-dimensional NMR, with the help of spin- and transition-selective pulses. A number of logic gates are implemented using two and three qubits with one extra observer spin. Some many-in-one gates (or Portmanteau gates) are also implemented. Toffoli gate (or AND/NAND gate) and OR/NOR gates are implemented on three qubits. The Deutsch-Jozsa quantum algorithm for one and two qubits, using one extra work qubit, has also been implemented using spin- and transition-selective pulses after creating a coherent superposition state in the two-dimensional methodology.     

The Elusive Source of Quantum Speedup

We discuss two qualities of quantum systems: various correlations existing between their subsystems and the distinguishability of different quantum states. This is then applied to analysing quantum information processing. While quantum correlations, or entanglement, are clearly of paramount importance for efficient pure state manipulations, mixed states present a much richer arena and reveal a more subtle interplay between correlations and distinguishability. The current work explores a number of issues related with identifying the important ingredients needed for quantum information processing. We discuss the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm, the Shor algorithm, the Grover algorithm and the power of a single qubit class of algorithms. In the latter, a quantity called discord is seen to be more important than entanglement. One section is dedicated to cluster states where entanglement is crucial, but its precise role is highly counter-intuitive. Here we see that the notion of distinguishability becomes a more useful concept.     

On the magnetic phase diagram of copper metaborate

A stepwise transition from one incommensurate state of the spin system of a copper metaborate crystal to another incommensurate state was previously revealed using neutron scattering in an applied magnetic field. In this paper, the new state is interpreted as a combination of a commensurate state of one spin subsystem and an incommensurate state of another spin subsystem of the crystal.     

A subsystem-independent generalization of entanglement

We present a generalization of entanglement based on the idea that entanglement is relative to a distinguished subspace of observables rather than a distinguished subsystem decomposition. A pure quantum state is entangled relative to such a subspace if its expectations are a proper mixture of those of other states. Many information-theoretic aspects of entanglement can be extended to this observable-based setting, suggesting new ways of measuring and classifying multipartite entanglement. By going beyond the distinguishable-subsystem framework, generalized entanglement also provides novel tools for probing quantum correlations in interacting many-body systems.     

Non-local quantum functions and the distributed Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm

Non-local implementations of quantum gates are a vital part of quantum networks. We find an optimal non-local implementation of quantum functions, the quantum gate equivalent of a switch statement. Then, we apply this result to the Deutsch-Jozsa problem, obtaining a distributed Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm and we show the relative efficiency improvement. As an application, we find a non-cooperative game based upon the original Deutsch-Jozsa problem where a classical agent has at most a 50% probability of winning, while a quantum agent can win every time.     

Implementation of Quantum Fourier Transform and Its Applications via Quantum-Dot Spins and Microcavity

A scheme for implementing discrete quantum Fourier transform isproposed via quantum dots embedded in a microcavity, and then someof its applications are investigated, i.e., Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm and Shor's quantum factoring. In particular, the detailed process of implementing one-qubit Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm and the factorization of N=15 are given. The microcavity mode is only virtually excited in the whole interaction, so the effective decoherent has slight effect on the current scheme. These schemeswould be an important step to fabricate a solid quantum computer.     

Ferromagnetic Ordering of Energy Levels

We study a natural conjecture regarding ferromagnetic ordering of energy levels in the Heisenberg model which complements the Lieb–Mattis Theorem of 1962 for antiferromagnets: for ferromagnetic Heisenberg models the lowest energies in each subspace of fixed total spin are strictly ordered according to the total spin, with the lowest, i.e., the ground state, belonging to the maximal total spin subspace. Our main result is a proof of this conjecture for the spin-1/2 Heisenberg XXX and XXZ ferromagnets in one dimension. Our proof has two main ingredients. The first is an extension of a result of Koma and Nachtergaele which shows that monotonicity as a function of the total spin follows from the monotonicity of the ground state energy in each total spin subspace as a function of the length of the chain. For the second part of the proof we use the Temperley–Lieb algebra to calculate, in a suitable basis, the matrix elements of the Hamiltonian restricted to each subspace of the highest weight vectors with a given total spin. We then show that the positivity properties of these matrix elements imply the necessary monotonicity in the volume. Our method also shows that the first excited state of the XXX ferromagnet on any finite tree has one less than maximal total spin.     

Creation of entanglement between two electron spins induced by many spin ensemble excitations

We theoretically explore the possibility of creating spin entanglement by simultaneously coupling two electronic spins to a nuclear ensemble. By microscopically modeling the spin ensemble as a single mode boson field, we use the time-dependent Fr?hlich transformation (TDFT) method developed recently [Y. Li, C. Bruder, C.P. Sun, Phys. Rev. A 75, 032302 (2007)] to calculate the effective coupling between the two spins. Our investigation shows that the total system realizes a solid state based architecture for cavity QED. Exchanging such kind of effective boson in a virtual process can result in an effective interaction between two spins. It is discovered that a maximum entangled state can be obtained when the velocity of the electrons matches the initial distance between them in a suitable way. Moreover, we also study how the number of collective excitations influences the entanglement. It is shown that the larger the number of excitation is, the less the two spins entangle each other.     

Thermal entanglement in a triple quantum dot system

We present studies of thermal entanglement of a three-spin system in triangular symmetry. Spin correlations are described within an effective Heisenberg Hamiltonian, derived from the Hubbard Hamiltonian, with super-exchange couplings modulated by an effective electric field. Additionally a homogenous magnetic field is applied to completely break the degeneracy of the system. We show that entanglement is generated in the subspace of doublet states with different pairwise spin correlations for the ground and excited states. For the doublets with the same spin orientation one can observe nonmonotonic temperature dependence of entanglement due to competition between entanglement encoded in the ground state and the excited state. The mixing of the states with an opposite spin orientation or with quadruplets (unentangled states) always monotonically destroys entanglement. Pairwise entanglement is quantified using concurrence for which analytical formulae are derived in various thermal mixing scenarios. The electric field plays a specific role – it breaks the symmetry of the system and changes spin correlations. Rotating the electric field can create maximally entangled qubit pairs together with a separate spin (monogamy) that survives in a relatively wide temperature range providing robust pairwise entanglement generation at elevated temperatures.     

New approach to spin dynamics simulation in magnetic system

New approach to spin dynamics simulation in magnetic system is presented. In the approach, we substitute new algorithm for Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert dynamics, which enable us to achieve the final stable state of magnetic system much faster than traditional spin dynamics simulation. A square-shaped sample with 32×32×4 size under different conditions is calculated. Our results show the new approach can largely reduce the computational time.     

Self-induced acoustic transparency of three-component longitudinal-transverse pulses

The features of the nonlinear dynamics of three-component elastic pulses in a low-temperature crystal containing paramagnetic impurities of electron and nuclear spins have been analyzed in the slowly varying envelope approximation. The presence of the electron spin subsystem makes it possible to equate the velocities of longitudinal sound and transverse acoustic waves; as a result, all components of the strain field efficiently interact with each other through the nuclear spin subsystem. The system of equations for envelopes of harmonics of the components of the strain field and the spin variables has been derived. The relations between the amplitudes and phases of the components have been obtained, the spectral composition has been analyzed, and the regimes of acoustic transparency of three-component longitudinal-transverse pulses have been discussed.     

Quantum dynamics of a driven correlated system coupled to phonons

Nonequilibrium interplay between charge, spin, and lattice degrees of freedom on a square lattice is studied for a single charge carrier doped in the t-J-Holstein model. In the presence of a static electric field we calculate the quasistationary state. With increasing electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling the carrier mobility decreases; however, we find increased steady state current due to e-ph coupling in the regime of negative differential resistance. We explore the distribution of absorbed energy between the spin and the phonon subsystem. For model parameters as relevant for cuprates, the majority of the gained energy flows into the spin subsystem.
