Creating cat states in one-dimensional quantum walks using delocalized initial states
Cat states are coherent quantum superpositions ofmacroscopically distinct states and are useful for understanding the boundary between the classical and the quantumworld. Due to theirmacroscopic nature, cat states are difficult to prepare in physical systems.We propose amethod to create cat states in one-dimensional quantumwalks using delocalized initial states of thewalker. Since the quantum w...
متن کاملA "Schrodinger Cat" Superposition State of an Atom
A "Schrodinger cat"-like state of matter was generated at the single atom level. A trapped 9Be+ ion was laser-cooled to the zero-point energy and then prepared in a superposition of spatially separated coherent harmonic oscillator states. This state was created by application of a sequence of laser pulses, which entangles internal (electronic) and external (motional) states of the ion. The Schr...
متن کاملMetastable states in magnetic nanorings
Magnetization states and hysteresis behavior of small ferromagnetic rings, of diameters 180–520 nm, have been investigated using magnetic force microscopy. In addition to the expected bi-domain ~‘‘onion’’! and flux-closed ~‘‘vortex’’! magnetization states, a metastable state has been found. This ‘‘twisted’’ state contains a 360° domain wall which can exist over a wide range of applied fields. F...
متن کاملCan Metastable States be Trapped?
Synchronizers (commonly implemented as chains of two flipflops) are used to reduce the probability that metastable states, emanating from asynchronous input transitions, propagate to state/data flip-flops and cause unwieldy catastrophes. Another way to think of this is that synchronizers “trap” metastability, preventing it from being observed by others circuits until a failure rate criteria is ...
متن کاملMetastable States of small-molecule solutions.
Metastable states such as gels and glasses that are commonly seen in nanoparticle suspensions have found application in a wide range of products including toothpaste, hand cream, paints, and car tires. The equilibrium and metastable state behavior of nanoparticle suspensions are often described by simple fluid models where particles are treated as having hard cores and interacting with short-ra...
