 | | The nucleus of atoms are like spinning bar magnets, and they can be in 2 states, spin up or spin down. |
 | | This would also be a Quantum logic gate, because a radio pulse can also put an atom in a superposition of states, both spin up and spin down at the same time, and anything coupled to that state would also be in a superposition of states. |
 | | That page is about NMR quantum computing, which is really classically-parallel bulk quantum computation, in which an Avogadro's number of molecules are used as individual quantum computers, and NMR is used to apply the quantum logic gates and to read out the final state. |
