“A single electron spin only interacts very weakly with its environment ... “The state of the system is a quantum superposition of each spin being excited, that is, flipped relative to the very strong ...

The electron spin resonance was shown to differ in the presence of ... Quantum computers would take advantage of phenomena described by quantum theory called "superposition" and "entanglement." ...

Since electron spin is coupled to the mechanical resonator ... how large an object can be and still be in a quantum-mechanical superposition of two different places. We know that electron ...

This is called quantum superposition. However ... let’s focus on how the researchers read out the spin of their electron. This new experiment consists of a row of three very cold, very tiny ...

and in this way manoeuvre the nucleus towards a desired superposition state. To do this, the team uses an “ancilla” qubit, which in this case was the spin of the electron associated with the vacancy ...

Alice, before passing out, determines that an electron is spin-up. But Wigner hasn’t made a measurement, so he sees Alice in a superposition of having measured spin-up or spin-down. When Wigner ...

By exploiting quantum-mechanical principles such as superposition ... semiconductors are exploited in order to use the spin of an individual electron as a qubit, can be traced back to Prof.

"If we choose the correct polarization of the light, our regular molecules that are in equilibrium are put into a spin superposition," Sutcliffe says. The laser pulse moves an electron from one ...
