Response to Comment on "Multipartite Entanglement Among Single Spins in Diamond" Academic Article

abstract

• Our study reported entanglement among single spins in diamond. Lovett and Benjamin argue that three of six described entangled states were not achieved. Here, we explain our choice of entangled states and discuss their importance for quantum information processing. We also show that the eigenstates discussed by Lovett and Benjamin, although formally entangled and routinely generated in our experiments, cannot be used to detect nonlocal correlations.
