Nuclear spins of noble gases can maintain coherence for hours at ambient conditions owing to their extraordinary isolation by the enclosing, complete electronic shells. This isolation, however, impedes the ability to manipulate and control them by optical means or by physical coupling to other spin gases. Here we experimentally achieve strong coherent coupling between noble-gas spins and the optically-accessible spins of alkali-metal vapor. Stochastic spin-exchange collisions, underlying the coupling, accumulate to a coherent periodic exchange of spin excitations between the two gases. We obtain a coupling rate 10 times higher than the decay rate, observe the resultant avoided crossing in the spectral response of the spins, and demonstrate the external control over the coupling by magnetic fields. These results open a route for efficient and rapid interfacing with noble-gas spins for applications in quantum sensing and information.
In Ref. [Katz et al., arXiv:2007.08770 (2020)], we present a mechanism and optimal procedures for mapping the quantum state of photons onto an optically inaccessible macroscopic state of noble-gas spins, which functions as a quantum memory. Here we i
We show that in certain one-dimensional spin chains with open boundary conditions, the edge spins retain memory of their initial state for very long times. The long coherence times do not require disorder, only an ordered phase. In the integrable Isi
We demonstrate that two remote qubits can be entangled through an optically active intermediary even if the coupling strengths between mediator and qubits are different. This is true for a broad class of interactions. We consider two contrasting scen
The dynamics of single electron and nuclear spins in a diamond lattice with different 13C nuclear spin concentration is investigated. It is shown that coherent control of up to three individual nuclei in a dense nuclear spin cluster is feasible. The
The fate of entanglement of spins for two heavy constituents of a bound state moving in a strong laser field is analyzed within the semiclassical approach. The bound state motion as a whole is considered classically beyond the dipole approximation an
