ABSTRACT
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.
ABSTRACT
A generalized set of magnetization modes for quantifying cross-correlation contributions to longitudinal relaxation in strongly coupled spin systems is described in this paper. Such a set of modes (called longitudinal multiple-quantum modes) is used to unravel cross-correlation information in strongly coupled systems, where the strength of the J coupling tends to obscure such effects. The applicability of such methods is demonstrated for a small molecule which exhibits some strong coupling effects even at high magnetic field strengths. The contribution of "remote" cross correlations to the longitudinal relaxation of strongly coupled spins is detailed. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
