First-principles investigation of spin-phonon coupling in vanadium-based molecular spin qubits

Andrea Albino, Stefano Benci, Lorenzo Tesi +5

Paramagnetic molecules can show long spin-coherence times, which make them good candidates as quantum bits. Reducing the efficiency of the spin-phonon interaction is the primary ch…

Drawing materials studied by THz spectroscopy

Andrea Taschin, Paolo Bartolini, Jordanka Tasseva +4

THz time-domain spectroscopy in transmission mode was applied to study dry and wet drawing inks. In specific, cochineal-, indigo- and iron-gall based inks have been investigated; s…

Supercooling and freezing processes in nanoconfined water by time-resolved optical Kerr effect spectroscopy

A. Taschin, P. Bartolini, A. Marcelli +2

Using heterodyne-detected optical Kerr effect (HD-OKE) measurements, we investigate the vibrational dynamics and the structural relaxation of water nanoconfined in Vycor porous sil…

A comparative study on bulk and nanoconfined water by time-resolved optical Kerr effect spectroscopy

Andrea Taschin, Paolo Bartolini, Agnese Marcelli +2

The low frequency vibrational spectra of hydrated porous silica are specifically sensitive to the hydrogen bond interactions and provides a wealth of information on the structural…
