We report the simulations of the dynamics of quantum-logic operations with large number of qubits (up to 1000). A nuclear-spin chain in which selective excitations of spins are provided by the gradient of the external magnetic field is considered. The spins interact with their nearest neighbors. We simulate the quantum controlled-NOT (CN) gate implementation for remote qubits, which provides the long-distance entanglement. Our approach can be applied to any implementation of quantum-logic gates involving a large number of qubits. (c) 2000 The American Physical Society.
