Nuclear spin qubits in a pseudo-spin quantum chain

Abstract

We analyze a quantum computer (QC) design based on nuclear spin qubits in a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) chain of non-Kramers doublet atoms. We explore the use of spatial symmetry breaking to obtain control over the local dynamics of a qubit. We also study the decoherence mechanisms at the single qubit level and the interactions mediated by the magnetic media. The design can be realized in ${\text{PrBr}}_{\text{3}-x}{\text{F}}_x$ with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques.
