Although scientists have long suspected that the nuclear-spin dark state could exist, they haven't been able to provide direct evidence of it—until now. "By directly confirming the existence of ...

Physicists at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) are the first to succeed in creating and manipulating quantum superpositions of a single, large nuclear spin. The superposition involves spin ...

"We thought silicon would provide us with a more controllable platform in which to study central-spin physics." Typically, the nuclear spins in semiconductors interact with electron spins via the ...

Neutrons also have a nuclear spin, making them very sensitive to the location and orientation of magnetic moments in materials and the probe of choice for many studies of magnetism. The mass of the ...

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR ... This magnetic field makes the possible spin-states of the nucleus differ in energy, and using NMR techniques the spins can be made to create observable transitions ...

I continued on at Dalhousie in the lab of Professor Rod Wasylishen and did a Ph.D. which focussed on both experimental and theoretical studies of anisotropic nuclear spin interactions in spin-1/2 ...
