We concentrate on the novel technique called oscillating cantilever-driven adiabatic reversals (OSCAR), which has been used for a single spin detection (Dan Rugar, Talk on the 2004 IEEE NTC Quantum Device Technology Workshop). First we describe the quantum dynamics of the cantilever-spin system using simple estimates in the spirit of the mean field approximation. Then we present the results of our computer simulations of the Schrodinger equation for the wave function of the cantilever-spin system and of the master equation for the density matrix of the system. We demonstrate that the cantilever behaves like a quasi-classical measurement device which detects the spin projection along the effective magnetic field. We show that the OSCAR technique provides continuous monitoring of the single spin, which could be used to detect the mysterious quantum collapses of the wave function of the cantilever-spin system. | | Source: | arXiv, quant-ph/0410002 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
