“…The para-hydrogen molecule cannot be used directly for NMR quantum computing, due to its high symmetry, but this can be overcome by using a chemical reaction to prepare a new molecule, in which the two hydrogen atoms can be made distinct and can be separately addressed. For further details see [12,13,14,15,17,18,19,20]. In our previous work we have used the two hydride 1 H nuclei in Ru(H) 2 (CO) 2 (dppe), where dppe indicates 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, as our NMR quantum computer.…”
