An electron within a mesoscopic (quantum-coherent) spintronic structure is described by a single wave function which, in the presence of both charge scattering and spin-orbit coupling, encodes an information about {\em entanglement} of its…

Intra-particle entanglement of individual particles such as neutrons could enable another class of scattering probes that are sensitive to entanglement in quantum systems and materials. In this work, we present experimental results…

We present fast Rydberg-mediated entanglement involving nuclear spins of divalent atoms with $^{171}$Yb as an example. First, we show a nuclear-spin controlled phase gate of an arbitrary phase realizable either with two laser pulses when…
