禁带区域内负的群速度

研究超声波经过两个烧结样品的行为.两个烧结样品为有序的面心立方结构,它们的结构几乎相同.研究表明:在两个有序的准均匀的介质中分别有一个禁带区域.就禁带区域而言,在两个样品中产生禁带的区域非常接近.同时在禁带出现的区域群速度为负值.我们的结果表明群速度的负值的确存在于有序介质中的禁带区域内.     

传统农业生态系统的保护

世界的生物多样性很大程度上受到传统农业耕作方式的保护。这些生态上复杂的农业系统与作物遗传多样性中心相联系,有传统的栽培品种或“地方品种”,作为世界作物遗传资源的重要组成,还有野生的植物和动物种群,作为生物资源服务于人类。     

Entanglement in a solid-state spin ensemble

Entanglement is the quintessential quantum phenomenon. It is a necessary ingredient in most emerging quantum technologies, including quantum repeaters, quantum information processing and the strongest forms of quantum cryptography. Spin ensembles, such as those used in liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, have been important for the development of quantum control methods. However, these demonstrations contain no entanglement and ultimately constitute classical simulations of quantum algorithms. Here we report the on-demand generation of entanglement between an ensemble of electron and nuclear spins in isotopically engineered, phosphorus-doped silicon. We combined high-field (3.4?T), low-temperature (2.9?K) electron spin resonance with hyperpolarization of the (31)P nuclear spin to obtain an initial state of sufficient purity to create a non-classical, inseparable state. The state was verified using density matrix tomography based on geometric phase gates, and had a fidelity of 98% relative to the ideal state at this field and temperature. The entanglement operation was performed simultaneously, with high fidelity, on 10(10) spin pairs; this fulfils one of the essential requirements for a silicon-based quantum information processor.
