NMR Hamiltonian as an effective Hamiltonian to generate Schr\"{o}dinger's cat states

Quantum Physics 2022-03-29 v2

Abstract

This report experimentally demonstrates that the theoretical background of the atom-field scenario points out that the NMR quadrupolar Hamiltonian works as an effective Hamiltonian to generate Schr\"{o}dinger's cat states in a 2I+12I+1 low dimensional Hilbert space. The versatility of this nuclear spin setup is verified by monitoring the 23^{23}Na nucleus of a lyotropic liquid crystal sample at the nematic phase. The quantum state tomography and the Wigner quasiprobability distribution function are performed to characterize the accuracy of the experimental implementation.
