报告摘要:
As the thirst for computer power is ever-growing and computer technology slowly reaches the classical limits of conventional semiconductor electronics, new alternatives are needed. Innovation is thinkable with respect to the materials (e.g., employing nanostructures), and with respect to the logic (using quantum logic). Both paths can be met with magnetic molecules as building blocks, paving the way toward full-fledged magnetic nanologic. Our results can help us to elucidate the microscopic mechanisms behind ultrafast spin dynamics and pave the way towards designing of future nanospintronic devices.
First, we investigate the time-dependent photoinduced dynamics in a Fe3 molecule (Fig. 1a) [1], revealing spin-flipping channels. Second, we analyze substrate effects, by exemplarily investigating the adsorption of iron porphyrin on Cu (100) (Fig. 1b) using second-harmonic generation. Third, we look into the magnetic properties of two magnetic polymers of Cu(II) complexes, the magnetic behavior of which can be controlled through different stackings [2]. Fourth, we study the ultrafast dynamics of [Dy2Ni2(L)4(NO3)2(DMF)2] (Fig. 1c) as well as trigonal monopyramidal Fe and Ni complexes (Fig. 1d) [3]. By comparing theory with experiment, we unveil the (partial) metal-to-oxygen charge transfer and estimate the thermal system-to-bath coupling constant [4]. Finally as concrete examples of possible realization of quantum logic we present a charge-spin gear box on the synthesized magnetic nanostructure Co3Ni(EtOH) [5], and the implementations of the Controlled-NOT, Hadamard, SWAP, and Pauli gates states in [Dy2Ni2(L)4(NO3)2(DMF)2] [6] and Co-decorated graphene nanoflakes [7]
