Vibrationally-mediated Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction as the origin of Chirality-Induced Spin Selectivity in donor-acceptor molecules
Alessandro Chiesa, D. K. Andrea Phan Huu, Arianna Cantarella +4
Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) was recently observed in photo-excited donor-chiral bridge-acceptor molecules, but a predictive theory able to explain available experimen…
Many-Body Models for Chirality-Induced Spin Selectivity in Electron Transfer
A. Chiesa, E. Garlatti, M. Mezzadri +6
We present the first microscopic model for chirality-induced spin selectivity effect in electron-transfer, in which the internal degrees of freedom of the chiral bridge are explici…
Magnetic Exchange Interactions in the Molecular Nanomagnet Mn
A. Chiesa, T. Guidi, S. Carretta +7
The discovery of magnetic bistability in Mn more than 20 years ago marked the birth of molecular magnetism, an extremely fertile interdisciplinary field and a powerful route…
Detection of entanglement between collective spins
F. Troiani, S. Carretta, P. Santini
Entanglement between individual spins can be detected by using thermodynamics quantities as entanglement witnesses. This applies to collective spins also, provided that their inter…
Many-body models for molecular nanomagnets
A. Chiesa, S. Carretta, P. Santini +2
We present a flexible and effective ab-initio scheme to build many-body models for molecular nanomagnets, and to calculate magnetic exchange couplings and zero-field splittings. It…
Spin dynamics of molecular nanomagnets fully unraveled by four-dimensional inelastic neutron scattering
M. L. Baker, T. Guidi, S. Carretta +8
Molecular nanomagnets are among the first examples of spin systems of finite size and have been test-beds for addressing a range of elusive but important phenomena in quantum dynam…
Molecular nanomagnets as quantum simulators
P. Santini, S. Carretta, F. Troiani +1
Quantum simulators are controllable systems that can be used to simulate other quantum systems. Here we focus on the dynamics of a chain of molecular qubits with interposed antifer…
Molecular engineering of antiferromagnetic rings for quantum computation
F. Troiani, A. Ghirri, M. Affronte +6
The substitution of one metal ion in a Cr-based molecular ring with dominant antiferromagnetic couplings allows to engineer its level structure and ground-state degeneracy. Here we…
