Single spin measurement using cellular automata techniques.

We analyze a conceptual approach to single-spin measurement. The method uses techniques from the theory of quantum cellular automata to correlate a large number of ancillary spins to the one to be measured. It has the distinct advantage of being efficient: under ideal conditions, it requires the application of only O((3)square root N)) steps (each requiring a constant number of rf pulses) to create a system of N correlated spins. Numerical simulations suggest that it is also, to a certain extent, robust against pulse errors, and imperfect initial polarization of the ancilla spin system.

Approximate quantum cloning with nuclear magnetic resonance.

Here we describe a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiment that uses a three qubit NMR device to implement the one-to-two approximate quantum cloning network of Buzek et al. [Phys. Rev. A 56, 3446 (1997)]. As expected the experimental results indicate that the network clones all input states with similar fidelities, but as a result of decoherence and incoherent evolution arising from B(1) inhomogeneity the total fidelity achieved does not exceed the measurement bound.
