Electron paramagnetic resonance studies of the high-spin molecule Cr10 (OMe) 20 (O2 CCMe3) 10
Applied Physics Letters 86:3 (2005) 1-3
Abstract:
We report millimeter-wave magneto-optical measurements on the high-spin molecule, Cr10 (OMe) 20 (O2 CCMe3) 10. The dependence of the electron paramagnetic resonance as a function of orientation and temperature demonstrates that this compound behaves as a single molecule magnet, and exhibits one of the smallest zero-field splittings (D=-0.045±0.004 K) yet reported for such a system. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.Chemical reactions inside single-walled carbon nano test-tubes

Abstract:
We report the application of SWNTs as templates for forming covalent polymeric chains from C60O reacting inside SWNTs; the resulting peapod polymer topology is different from the bulk polymer in that it is linear and unbranched.Measuring errors in single-qubit rotations by pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance
Physical Review A - Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics 71:1 (2005)
Abstract:
The ability to measure and reduce systematic errors in single-qubit logic gates is crucial when evaluating quantum computing implementations. We describe pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) sequences that can be used to measure precisely even small systematic errors in rotations of electron-spin-based qubits. Using these sequences we obtain values for errors in the rotation angle and axis for single-qubit rotations using a commercial EPR spectrometer. We conclude that errors in qubit operations by pulsed EPR are not limiting factors in the implementation of electron-spin-based quantum computers. © 2005 The American Physical Society.Chemical reactions inside single-walled carbon nano test-tubes.
