    magnetochemistry Review Cr7Ni Wheels: Supramolecular Tectons for the Physical Implementation of Quantum Information Processing Jesus Ferrando-Soria † School of Chemistry, University of Manchester, Oxford Road, Manchester M13 9PL, UK; [email protected]; Tel.: +34-963-544460 † Present address: Instituto de Ciencia Molecular (ICMol), Universitat de València, Paterna 46980, València, Spain. Academic Editor: Floriana Tuna Received: 11 August 2016; Accepted: 15 September 2016; Published: 21 September 2016 Abstract: The physical implementation of quantum information processing (QIP) is an emerging field that requires finding a suitable candidate as a quantum bit (qubit), the basic unit for quantum information, which can be organised in a scalable manner to implement quantum gates (QGs) capable of performing computational tasks. Supramolecular chemistry offers a wide range of chemical tools to bring together, with great control, different molecular building blocks in order to grow supramolecular assemblies that have the potential to achieve the current milestones in the field. In this review, we are particularly interested in the latest research developments on the supramolecular chemistry approach to QIP using {Cr7Ni} wheels as qubits for the physical implementation of QGs. Special emphasis will be given to the unique high degree of chemical tunability of this unique class of heterobimetallic octanuclear rings, which results in an attractive playground to generate aesthetically pleasing supramolecular assemblies of increasing structural complexity and interesting physical properties for quantum computing. Keywords: {Cr7Ni} heterobimetallic rings; quantum information processing; supramolecular chemistry; qubits; quantum gates 1. Introduction: Molecules as Qubits The physical implementation of quantum information processing (QIP) is currently a subject of intense research in chemistry, physics, materials science, and nanotechnology because of the thrilling potential technological applications that chemical and physical systems may exhibit in quantum computing [1–4].

Orbach relaxation dominates at high temperature, but at lower temperatures a second-order Raman process dominates. Complex 2Dy exhibits two thermally activated energy barriers (Ueff) of 721 and 813 K, the largest Ueff values for any monometallic dysprosium(III) complex. Dilution experiments confirm the molecular origin of this phenomenon. Complex 2Dy has rich magnetic dynamics; field-cooled (FC)/zero-field cooled (ZFC) susceptibility measurements show a clear divergence at 16 K, meaning the magnetic observables are out-of-equilibrium below this temperature, however the maximum in ZFC, which conventionally defines the blocking temperature, TB, is found at 10 K.

We report a six coordinate DyIII single-molecule magnet (SMM) with an energy barrier of 1110 K for thermal relaxation of magnetization. The sample shows no retention of magnetization even at 2 K and this led us to find a good correlation between the blocking temperature and the Raman relaxation regime for SMMs. The key parameter is the relaxation time (ᵰ ) at the point where switch the Raman relaxation mechanism becomes more important than Orbach.

More broadly, I am interested in the use of X-ray crystallography as a tool to examine reaction mechanism in solid-state chemistry. I am a frequent user of the HPCAT and GSECARS beamlines at the APS. I collaborate closely with beamline scientists across both sectors and have averaged 8 shifts each run over the last four years. The APS is a world leader in the field of high pressure and is the source of many of the cutting-edge techniques that have since been adopted by other beamlines. This trend of origination is set to continue with the upgrade, which will position the APS at the forefront of synchrotron radiation science. The enormous increase in flux will make it the flagship of a new generation of experiments that allow for crystallographic access to unprecedented ultrafast timescales.
