  Quantum computer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In a classical (or conventional) computer, the amount of data is measured by bits; in a quantum computer, it is measured by qubits.
Quantum computers are different from classical computers such as DNA computers and computers based on transistors, even though these may ultimately use some kind of quantum mechanical effect (for example covalent bonds).
In quantum mechanics, the state of a physical system (such as an electron or a photon) is described by an element of a mathematical object called a Hilbert space.

 Kane quantum computer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kane quantum computer is a proposal for a scalable quantum computer proposed by Bruce Kane in 1998
Often thought of as a hybrid between quantum dot and NMR quantum computers, the Kane computer is based on an array of individual phosphorus donor atoms embedded in a pure silicon lattice.
Kane's proposal for readout was to apply an electric field to encourage spin-dependent tunneling of an electron to transform two neutral donors to a D

In a classical (or conventional) computer data are measured by bits; in a quantum computer the data are measured by qubits.
The basic principle of quantum computation is that the quantum properties of particles can be used to represent and structure data, and that devised quantum mechanisms can be used to perform operations with these data.
For a quantum computer on the other hand with a 3 qubit register, the state of the register is determined by 8 complex numbers as is illustrated in the following example:

Quantum computers are different from classical computers such as DNA computers and computers based on transistors, even though these may ultimately use some kind of quantummechanical effect (for example covalent bonds).
Qubits for a quantum computer can be implemented using particles with two spin states: "up" and "down"; in fact any system with an observable quantity A which is conserved under time evolution and such that A has atleast two discrete and sufficiently spaced consecutive eigenvalues, is a suitable candidate for implementing a qubit.
An operator for a quantum computer can be thought of as changing a vector by multiplying it with a particular matrix.Multiplication by a matrix is a linear operation.

Quantum computers, however, take advantage of the strange phenomenon that physicists call "superposition," where infinitesimal objects such as individual electrons or atoms can exist in two or more places at once, or spin in opposite directions at the same time.
Quantum computers therefore can calculate every possible on-off combination at the same time, making them dramatically faster than conventional data processors when it comes to solving certain problems involving probabilities, such as code-breaking.
Quantum computing research is growing rapidly at military, intelligence and university research labs worldwide, as well as at those of industrial giants such as AT&T, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Lucent and Microsoft.

Quantum computing is riding a new wave of supercool subatomic bits that can be both 1 and 0 at once.
Computation in an NMR computer is done by beaming in pulses of radio waves tuned to the particular resonant frequency of each nucleus in molecules of a liquid solution, such as chloroform and crotonic acid, and detecting the resonant frequencies emanating from the resulting nuclear alignment.
Unlike a conventional computer, each branch of a flowchart represents not an either-or choice, but rather a bifurcation: One state of the computer answers "yes" and follows the instructions from there, while another simultaneous state answers "no" and does likewise.

The key to quantum computing is being able to use the spins of subatomic particles such as electrons to represent the ones and zeros of computing.
A theoretical proposal by University of Maryland researcher Bruce Kane shows that qubits made from phosphorus atoms embedded in silicon could hold their spin states for a long enough time to do computing, could be placed closely enough to interact with each other, and could be made in a large quantity.
Researchers in the quantum field generally agree that practical quantum computers are at least two decades away, if they can be built at all.

 Silicon-Based Solid State Quantum Computer
A quantum computer will be a computer that carries out logic operations with, and stores information in, the quantum states of a single atom, molecule, or other suitable nanoscale entity.
The quantum bit, or qubit, represented by an atom or nanoengineered device is more powerful than regular bits because, due to its quantum nature, it can be put into a superposition of states.
The attraction of Kane’s proposal is that it would allow the new technology to draw on the large base of existing semiconductor technology to help with qubit addressing and manipulation.

 Kane
Spins are frequently considered the ideal candidate qubit for quantum information processing: the goals of coherent control and measurement of spins in semiconductors are consequently a major focus in the worldwide experimental effort to build a quantum computer.
After a general introduction to the status of research on spin-based quantum computing, I will discuss work in our lab on the particular goal of measurement of electron spin states on single donors in silicon, the first step towards a silicon-based quantum computer.
Even if it proves to be possible to perform quantum logic with spins, the more remote goal of scaleable quantum computing using solid state devices poses truly formidable challenges, primarily owing to the intrinsic variability of solid state device parameters.

That information is described by state in a 2-level quantum mechanical system, whose two basic states are conventionally labeled 0 \rangle and 1 \rangle (pronounced: ket 0 and ket 1).
Such "quantum parallelism" is one of the keys to the potential power of quantum computation.
Similarly, a unit of quantum information in a 3-level quantum system is called a qutrit, by analogy with the unit of classical information trit.

In the architecture nuclear spins function as qubits, while electrons mediate the interactions between the nuclear spins and enable the spin states of the nuclei to be measured.
Consequently, the proposed devices for performing quantum logic are remarkably similar to the field effect transistors used in contemporary conventional computers.
Our experimental efforts are concentrated on taking the first step towards a silicon-based quantum computer: developing an electronic device capable of measuring a single electron spin.

Kane started with a nice introduction to quantum computers and why the concept is so powerful.
Kane identified the grand challenge to be to identify systems in which qubits can be accurately measured and manipulated, and to learn to control interactions between quantum states in a complex, many-qubit system.
Kane stressed that in spite of this somewhat pessimistic outlook, significant opportunities exist for materials research and nanofabrication at the end point of Moore's law scaling.

 Jahrbuch-CD der MPG 2003 - Nonadiabatic controlled-NOT gat
The method of iterated resolvents is used to obtain an effective Hamiltonian for neighboring qubits in the Kane solid- state quantum computer.
In contrast to the adiabatic gate processes inherent in the Kane proposal we show that free evolution of the qubit-qubit system, as generated by this effective Hamiltonian, combined with single-qubit operations, is sufficient to produce a controlled-NOT gate.
Thus the usual set of universal gates can be obtained on the Kane quantum computer without the need for adiabatic switching of the controllable parameters as prescribed by Kane [Nature (London) 393, 133 (1998)].
