Abstract

Description

We report the first use of "logical labeling" to perform a quantum computation with a room-temperature bulk system. This method entails the selection of a subsystem which behaves as if it were at zero temperature - except for a decrease in signal strength - conditioned upon the state of the remaining system. No averaging over differently prepared molecules is required. In order to test this concept, we execute a quantum search algorithm in a subspace of two nuclear spins, labeled by a third spin, using solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and employing a novel choice of reference frame to uncouple nuclei.
