AbstractThe success of the emerging field of solid-state optical quantum information processing (QIP) critically depends on the access to resonant optical materials. Rare-earth ion (REI)-based molecular systems, whose quantum properties could be tuned taking advantage of molecular engineering strategies, are one of the systems actively pursued for the implementation of QIP schemes. Herein, we demonstrate the efficient polarization of ground-state nuclear spins—a fundamental requirement for all-optical spin initialization and addressing—in a binuclear Eu(III) complex, featuring inhomogeneously broadened 5D0 → 7F0 optical transition. At 1.4 K, long-lived spectral holes have been burnt in the transition: homogeneous linewidth (Γh) = 22 ± 1 MHz, which translates as optical coherence lifetime (T2opt) = 14.5 ± 0.7 ns, and ground-state spin population lifetime (T1spin) = 1.6 ± 0.4 s have been obtained. The results presented in this study could be a progressive step towards the realization of molecule-based coherent light-spin QIP interfaces.

A class of non-Kekulé molecular systems with a new structural principle and low excitation energies or with a triplet ground state was investigated theoretically. The systems consist of a non-Kekulé monoradical, possessing a non-bonding molecular orbital linked in a specific way to another monoradical.

Applications of the multireference linearized coupled-cluster single-doubles (MRLCCSD) to atomic and molecular systems have been carried out. MRLCCSD is exploited to calculate the ground-state energies of HF, H2O, NH3, CH4, N2, BF, and C2with basis sets, cc-pVDZ, cc-pVTZ and cc-pVQZ. The equilibrium bond lengths and vibration frequencies of HF, HCl, Li2, LiH, LiF, LiBr, BH, and AlF are computed with MRLCCSD and compared with the experimental data. The electron affinities of F and CH as well as the proton affinities of H2O and NH3are also calculated with MRLCCSD. These results are compared with the results produced with second-order perturbation theory, linearized coupled-cluster doubles (LCCD), coupled-cluster doubles (CCD), coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD), CCSD with perturbative triples correction (CCSD(T)). It is shown that all results obtained with MRLCCSD are reliable and accurate.

We theoretically investigate the quantum correlations (in terms of concurrence of indistinguishable electrons) in a prototype molecular system (hydrogen molecule). With the assistance of the standard approximations of the linear combination of atomic orbitals and the configuration interaction methods we describe the electronic wavefunction of the ground state of the H 2 molecule. Moreover, we managed to find a rather simple analytic expression for the concurrence (the most used measure of quantum entanglement) of the two electrons when the molecule is in its lowest energy. We have found that concurrence does not really show any relation to the construction of the chemical bond.

The Wang-Landau method estimates the relative density of states (DOS) by performing random walk in energy space. However, estimation of the DOS near the ground state minimum is highly challenging because of the dearth of states in the low-energy region compared to that at the high-energy region. Ideally the derivative of the logarithm of the DOS with respect to energy, which is proportional to the inverse of temperature, should become steeper with decrease in energy. However, in actual estimation of the DOS for molecular systems, it is nontrivial to achieve this. In the current work, the accuracy of the Wang-Landau method in estimating the DOS near the ground state minimum is investigated for two peptides, Met-enkephalin and (Alanine)5. It has been found that the steepness of the DOS can be achieved if the correct ground state energy is found, the bin used to discretize the energy space is extremely small (0.1 kcal/mol was used in the current case) and the energy range used to estimate the DOS is small. The findings of this work can help in devising new protocols for calculating the DOS with high accuracy near the ground state minimum for molecular systems.
