Project description
Pioneering qubit platforms based on metal-organic molecules on graphene
Spin qubits on surfaces have recently demonstrated to be potential candidates for the realisation of quantum bits in the next-generation quantum technologies. Single spin qubits encode intrinsic quantum information that can be detected, coherently manipulated and read out. With the support of the Marie Sklodowka-Curie Actions programme, the MolQuMag project will leverage scanning tunnelling microscopy with electron paramagnetic resonance in order to have access to spin qubits in metalated phthalocyanines and porphyrins supported on graphene. Overall, the project aims to develop unprecedented qubit platforms on novel substrates and interrogate their quantum behaviour.
Objective
MolQuMag aims to pioneer new qubit platforms based on metal-organic molecules on graphene through the capability to detect, coherently manipulate, and readout their electronic spin states. In particular, intrinsic spin properties of metalated phthalocyanines and porphyrines will be tackled by means of the novel technique of Scanning Tunneling Microscopy combined with Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR-STM). This tool will provide the intrinsic figures of merit (decoherence and relaxation times, and Rabi rates) that unveil the feasibility of these metal-organic molecules as spin qubits. MolQuMag is of high relevance for the development of the next generation of quantum technologies based on the implementation of a large number of identical qubits as well as the development of efficient methods to interrogate them. The applicant will have the opportunity to immerse and gain valuable knowledge and expertise in the novel technique during the outgoing phase in the renowned ETHZ research laboratories in Switzerland, and bring her expertise on EPR-STM and quantum magnetism to Europe and in particular Spain, contributing to the expansion of quantum technologies in the Spanish research community, where the applicant plans to establish herself in the future.
