Quantum information processing with delocalized qubits under global control.

Conventional quantum computing schemes are incompatible with nanometer-scale "hardware," where the closely packed spins cannot be individually controlled. We report the first experimental demonstration of a global control paradigm: logical qubits delocalize along a spin chain and are addressed via the two terminal spins. Using NMR studies on a three-spin molecule, we implement a globally clocked quantum mirror that outperforms the equivalent swap network. We then extend the protocol to support dense qubit storage and demonstrate this experimentally via Deutsch and Deutsch-Jozsa algorithms
