Quantum algorithms could be much faster than classical ones in solving the factoring problem. Adiabatic quantum computation for this is an alternative approach other than Shor's algorithm. Here we report an improved adiabatic factoring algorithm and its experimental realization to factor the number 143 on a liquid crystal NMR quantum processor with dipole-dipole couplings. We believe this to be the largest number factored in quantum-computation realizations, which shows the practical importance of adiabatic quantum algorithms.
Multiple quantum (MQ) NMR with a dipolar ordered initial state opens new possibilities for the exploration of many-spin entanglement. In this paper, we investigate many-spin entanglement in a gas of spin-carrying molecules (atoms) in nanocavities in the conditions of MQ NMR with a dipolar ordered initial state. The second moment of the distribution of the intensities of MQ NMR coherences, which provides a lower bound on the quantum Fisher information, is used for an estimate of the number of the entangled spins. Many-spin entanglement is investigated at different temperatures and different num…

Evidence of several dipolar quasi-invariants in Liquid Crystals
在一个磁量子数为I的N个耦合自旋的封闭量子系统中,大约有(2 I + 1)^N个运动常数。然而,在核磁共振(NMR)中观察到类固体自旋系统中的这种准不变(QI)态的可能性并不是一个严格精确的预测。这项工作的目的是提供实验证据的几个QI,在质子NMR的小自旋团簇,除了那些已经知道的塞曼,和偶极订单(强和弱)。我们探讨了自旋状态准备与Jeener-Broekaert脉冲序列通过分析时域信号产生的这个序列作为一个函数的准备时间,在各种偶极网络。我们观察到,信号可以解释与两个偶极QIs只有在一个范围内的短的准备时间。在较长时间,时域信号具有类似回声的行为。我们研究了它们的多个量子相干性内容的基础上正交的z-基础上,看到这样的状态涉及大量的相关自旋。然后,我们表明,整个准备时间尺度只能通过假设多个QI的发生,我们隔离实验重建。
Experimental observation of a phase transition in the evolution of many-body systems with dipolar interactions
多体系统的非平衡动力学在许多科学分支中都很重要,如凝聚态、量子化学和超冷原子。本文报道了具有偶极相互作用的三维多自旋系统的量子相干动力学的相变的实验观测,并确定了它的临界指数。利用室温下的固态自旋系统的核磁共振(NMR),我们淬灭相互作用哈密顿量来驱动系统的演化。由此产生的系统相干性的动态可以是本地化的或扩展的,这取决于淬火强度。应用有限时间标度分析所观察到的相关自旋的数量的时间演化,我们提取的临界指数v = s = 0.42周围的相变分离本地从离域动力学制度。这些结果清楚地表明,这种基于核自旋的量子模拟可以有效地模拟复杂多体系统的非平衡动力学,例如具有偶极相互作用的3D自旋网络。
At the magnetic fields of common NMR instruments, electron Zeeman frequencies are too high for efficient electron-nuclear dipolar cross-relaxation to occur in solution. The rate of that process fades with the electron Zeeman frequency as omega^{-2} - in the absence of isotropic hyperfine couplings, liquid state dynamic nuclear polarisation (DNP) in high-field magnets is therefore impractical. However, contact coupling and dipolar cross-relaxation are not the only mechanisms that can move electron magnetisation to nuclei in liquids: multiple cross-correlated (CC) relaxation processes also exist…
In the long quest to identify and compensate the sources of decoherence in many-body systems far from the ground state, the varied family of Loschmidt echoes (LEs) became an invaluable tool in several experimental techniques. A LE involves a time-reversal procedure to assess the effect of perturbations in a quantum excitation dynamics. However, when addressing macroscopic systems one is repeatedly confronted with limitations that seem insurmountable. This led to formulate the \textit{central hypothesis of irreversibility} stating that the time-scale of decoherence, $T_3$, is proportional to th…

This work addresses quantum adiabatic decoherence of many-body spin systems coupled with a boson field in the framework of open quantum systems theory. We generalize the traditional spin-boson model by considering a system-environment interaction Hamiltonian that represents a partition of non-interacting subsystems and highlights the collective correlation that appears exclusively due to the coupling with a common environment. Remarkably, this simple, exactly solvable model encompasses relevant aspects of a many-body open quantum system and features the subtle quantum effects that arise when t…
