Scientists achieve nuclear spin coherence in levitating microparticles

Posted by in categories: biological, computing, quantum physics

A new study in Physical Review Letters demonstrates the levitation of a microparticle using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), having potential implications from biology to quantum computing.

NMR is a spectroscopic technique commonly used to analyze various materials based on how the respond to external magnetic fields. This provides information about the internal structure, dynamics, and environment of the material.

One of the main challenges with NMR is using it on small objects to control the quantum properties of levitating microparticles.
