摘要
Molecular qubits with the longest coherence times thus far are based on nuclear-spin-carrying central ions. These nuclear spins can cause quantum state leakage, which is detrimental to quantum algorithm performance. We present two novel molecular qubits based on potentially nuclear spin-free Ni in the formal oxidation state 3+. (d(20)- PPh4)[Ni(mnt)(2)] (Ni-mnt, mnt(2-) = maleonitrile-1,2-dithiolate) possesses a coherence time of up to 38.7 mu s at 7 K. Functionalization of the dithiolate ligand decreases the coherence time by a factor of only four in (HNEt3)[Ni(dip)(2)] (Ni-dip, dip(2-) = 3-(diphenylphosphoryl)-methylbenzene1,2- dithiolate), indicating that monoanionic Ni-dithiolene complexes are promising and robust building blocks for polynuclear molecular qubit gates.
