Singlet State
A "Singlet State" refers to a specific quantum state of a system, particularly in the context of particles like electrons. In this state, two particles have paired spins that are opposite, resulting in a total spin of zero. This means that the system has no net angular momentum, making it stable and less reactive compared to other spin states.
Singlet states are important in various fields, including quantum mechanics and quantum computing. They play a crucial role in phenomena like quantum entanglement, where particles remain connected regardless of distance, allowing for potential applications in secure communication and advanced computing technologies.
