Spin tunneling in the particular case of the magnetic molecular cluster octanuclear iron(III), Fe8, is treated by an effective Hamiltonian that allows for an angle-based description of the process. The presence of an external magnetic field…
A new approach is used that allows to describe the magnetic molecules main properties in a direct and simple way. Results obtained for the Fe8 cluster show good agreement with the experimental data.
Molecular spin qudits offer an attractive platform for quantum memory, combining long coherence times with rich multi-level spin structures. Terbium bis(phthalocyaninato) (TbPc$_2$) exemplifies such systems, with demonstrated quantum…
It is proposed that the state space of a quantum object with a complicated discrete spectrum can be used as a basis for multiqubit recording and processing of information in a quantum computer. As an example, nuclear spin 3/2 is considered.…
We report on a single photon and spin storage device based on a semiconductor quantum dot molecule. Optically excited single electron-hole pairs are trapped within the molecule and their recombination rate is electrically controlled over…
In this work, we consider a type of magnetic memory where information is encoded into the mutual arrangements of magnets. The device is an active ring circuit comprising magnetic and electronic parts connected in series. The electric part…
We investigate a hybrid quantum circuit where ensembles of cold polar molecules serve as long-lived quantum memories and optical interfaces for solid state quantum processors. The quantum memory realized by collective spin states (ensemble…
Rotating the magnetization of a magnetostrictive nanomagnet with electrically generated mechanical strain dissipates miniscule amount of energy compared to any other rotation method and would have been the ideal method to write bits in…
The magnetoelectric effects in multiferroics have a great potential in creating next-generation memory devices. We conceive a new concept of non-volatile memories based on a type of nonlinear magnetoelectric effects showing a…
We measure magnetization changes in a single crystal of the single-molecule magnet Fe8 when exposed to intense, short (<20 $\mu$s) pulses of microwave radiation resonant with the m = 10 to 9 transition. We find that radiation induces a…
We propose a multi-mode quantum memory protocol able to store the quantum state of the field in a microwave resonator into an ensemble of electronic spins. The stored information is protected against inhomogeneous broadening of the spin…
Single molecule magnets straddle the classical and quantum mechanical worlds, displaying many fascinating phenomena. They may have important technological applications in information storage and quantum computation. We review the physical…
We show storage of the circular polarisation of an optical field, transferring it to the spin-state of an individual electron confined in a single semiconductor quantum dot. The state is subsequently readout through the…
A cluster composed of a few magnetic atoms assembled on the surface of a nonmagnetic substrate is one suitable realization of a bit for future concepts of spin-based information technology. The prevalent approach to achieve magnetic…

We study spin tunneling in magnetic molecules, with special reference to Fe8. The article aims to give a pedagogical discussion of what is meant by the tunneling of a spin, and how tunneling amplitudes or energy level splittings may be…
The chiral $Fe_3O(NC_5H_5)_3(O_2CC_6H_5)_6$ molecular cation, with C$_3$ symmetry, is composed of three six-fold coordinated spin-carrying Fe$^{3+}$ cations that form a perfect equilateral triangle. Experimental reports demonstrating the…
We report measurements on magnetization reversal in the Fe$_8$ molecular magnet using fast pulsed magnetic fields of 1.5 kT/s and in the temperature range of 0.6-4.1 K. We observe and analyze the temperature dependence of the reversal…
The low temperature spin dynamics of a Fe8 Single-Molecule Magnet was studied under circularly polarized electromagnetic radiation allowing us to establish clearly photon-assisted tunneling. This effect, while linear at low power, becomes…
Starting from a phenomenological Hamiltonian originally written in terms of angular momentum operators we derive a new quantum angle-based Hamiltonian that allows for a discussion on the quantum spin tunneling. The study of the…
