Cryogenic ensemble spectroscopy of Europium molecular complexes — •Weizhe Li, Evgenij Vasilenko, Jannis Hessenauer, Senthil Kumar Kuppusamy, Mario Ruben, and David Hunger — Karlsruhe Institut für Technologie, Karlruhe, Germany

Rare Earth Ions (REI) doped into solid state crystals have long optical coherence time and even longer spin coherence time. This makes REI a promising candidate for spin qubits which are optically addressable. For integration into photonic structures, nano-scale materials are of particular interest. In Europium-doped nanocrystals (Eu3+:Y2O3), an optical coherence time of 3.7 µs and spin coherence time of 3 ms were obtained [1, 2, 3]. More recently, crystallized molecular complexes hosting REI have shown excellent optical coherence lifetimes of more than 10 µs and long spin population lifetimes [4], evidencing a quiet local environment.

This opens up a promising direction to explore further. In our research, we investigate different Eu3+-based molecules including the complex used in [4]. We perform cryogenic ensemble spectroscopy and spectral hole burning and consistently observe long-lived spin states and narrow homogeneous optical linewidths.
