摘要
Quantum error correction is required to compensate for the fragility of the state of a quantum computer. We report the first experimental implementations of quantum error correction and confirm the expected state stabilization. A precise analysis of the decay behavior is performed in alanine and a full implementation of the error correction procedure is realized in trichloroethylene, In NMR computing, however, a net improvement in the signal to noise would require very high polarization. The experiment implemented the three-bit code for phase errors using liquid state NMR.
