Molecular quantum spintronics with single-molecule magnets — •Wolfgang Wernsdorfer — Institut Néel, CNRS, BP 166, 38042 Grenoble, France

We will address the field called molecular quantum spintronics, combining the concepts of spintronics, molecular electronics and quantum computing. Various research groups are currently developing low-temperature scanning tunnelling microscopes to manipulate spins in single molecules, while others are working on molecular devices (such as molecular spin-transistors, spin valves and filters, and carbon-nanotube-based devices) to read and manipulate the spin state and perform basic quantum operations. For ex., we have built a novel spin-valve device in which a non-magnetic molecular quantum dot, consisting of a Single-Wall Carbon Nanotube, is laterally coupled to a TbPc2 molecular magnet. The localized magnetic moment of the SMM led to a magnetic field-dependent modulation of the conductance in the nanotube with magnetoresistance ratios of up to 300%. Using a molecular spin-transistor, we achieved the electronic read-out of the nuclear spin of an individual metal atom embedded in a single-molecule magnet (SMM). We could show very long spin lifetimes (several tens of seconds). Using the hyperfine Stark effect, which transforms electric fields into local effective magnetic fields, we could not only tune the resonant frequency by several MHz, but we also performed coherent quantum manipulations on a single nuclear qubit by means of electrical fields only.
