Abstract
We describe the creation of a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state of the form (\000] + \111])/ root 2 (three maximally entangled quantum bits) using nuclear magnetic resonance. We have successfully carried out th e experiment using the proton and carbon spins of trichloroethylene, a nd confirmed the result using state tomography. We have thus extended the space of entangled quantum states explored systematically to three quantum bits, an essential step for quantum computation.
