Use of molecular electron spins as qubits for quantum computing will depend on the ability to produce molecules with weak but measurable interactions between the qubits. Here we demonstrate use of pulsed EPR spectroscopy to measure the interaction between two inequivalent spins in a hybrid rotaxane molecule.
Funding
We thank the EPSRC(UK) for funding post‐doctoral positions (M.‐E.B. and A.F., grant EP/L018470/1) and for an X‐ray diffractometer (EP/K039547/1) as well as for the EPSRC National Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Facility and Service. N.F.C. thanks the Ramsay Memorial Trust for a Research Fellowship.
