We present a new scheme that combines these advantages, and propose a practical implementation of this scheme that is feasible using existing technology.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2003-07-17T08:08:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "decoherence-free subspaces", "distribution", "protect quantum computations", "one-way autocompensation", "technology" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
