Optical switching of nuclear spin-spin couplings in semiconductors.

ABSTRACT: Two-qubit operation is an essential part of quantum computation. However, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance quantum computing has not been able to fully implement this functionality, because it requires a switchable inter-qubit coupling that controls the time evolutions of entanglements. Nuclear dipolar coupling is beneficial in that it is present whenever nuclear-spin qubits are close to each other, while it complicates two-qubit operation because the qubits must remain decoupled to prevent unwanted couplings. Here we introduce optically controllable internuclear coupling in semiconductors. The coupling strength can be adjusted externally through light power and even allows on/off switching. This feature provides a simple way of switching inter-qubit couplings in semiconductor-based quantum computers. In addition, its long reach compared with nuclear dipolar couplings allows a variety of options for arranging qubits, as they need not be next to each other to secure couplings.

Wavelength-division multiplexing optical Ising simulator enabling fully programmable spin couplings and external magnetic fields.

Project description:Recently various physical systems have been proposed for modeling Ising spin Hamiltonians appealing to solve combinatorial optimization problems with remarkable performance. However, how to implement arbitrary spin-spin interactions is a critical and challenging problem in unconventional Ising machines. Here, we propose a general gauge transformation scheme to enable arbitrary spin-spin interactions and external magnetic fields as well, by decomposing an Ising Hamiltonian into multiple Mattis-type interactions. With this scheme, a wavelength-division multiplexing spatial photonic Ising machine (SPIM) is developed to show the programmable capability of general spin coupling interactions. We exploit the wavelength-division multiplexing SPIM to simulate three spin systems: ±J models, Sherrington-Kirkpatrick models, and only locally connected J1-J2 models and observe the phase transitions. We also demonstrate the ground-state search for solving Max-Cut problem with the wavelength-division multiplexing SPIM. These results promise the realization of ultrafast-speed and high-power efficiency Boltzmann sampling to a generalized large-scale Ising model.

Prediction of Deterministic All-Optical Switching of Ferromagnetic Thin Film by Ultrafast Optothermal and Optomagnetic Couplings.

Project description:All-optical switching (AOS) of magnetization induced by ultrafast laser pulses is fundamentally interesting and promises unprecedented speed for magnetic data storage that is three orders of magnitudes faster than the current techniques. For ferrimagnetic material, the AOS is attributed to magnetic circular dichroism and angular momentum transfer between sublattices. Recently, ferromagnetic material is demonstrated in AOS under multiple pulses. Since the magnetic field needed to flip the ferromagnetic magnetization within femtosecond timescale is unphysically high, some theories hypothesized that there exists a prolonged magnetic field beyond the pulse duration in the switching process. This is intuitively inconsistent with the phenomenological explanation based on the light-induced magnetic field arising from the inverse Faraday effect (IFE). Here, we numerically study the AOS process and provide new insights into the long-standing paradox of the duration of the induced magnetic field. We show that the prolonged magnetic field duration originates from the ultrafast optothermal and optomagnetic coupling. Moreover, we numerically studied both single- and multiple-pulse AOS under different coupling strength between spins and the thermal bath in the macroscopic Fockker-Planck and Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch model. This numerical model may provide a guide to find suitable ferromagnetic materials for AOS.

Depolarization of nuclear spin polarized 129Xe gas by dark rubidium during spin-exchange optical pumping.

Project description:Continuous-flow spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) continues to serve as the most widespread method of polarizing 129Xe for magnetic resonance experiments. Unfortunately, continuous-flow SEOP still suffers from as-yet unidentified inefficiencies that prevent the production of large volumes of xenon with a nuclear spin polarization close to theoretically calculated values. In this work we use a combination of ultra-low field nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) measurements to study the effects of dark Rb vapor on hyperpolarized 129Xe in situ during continuous-flow SEOP. We find that dark Rb vapor in the optical cell outlet has negligible impact on the final 129Xe polarization at typical experimental conditions, but can become significant at higher oven temperatures and lower flow rates. Additionally, in the AAS spectra we also look for a signature of paramagnetic Rb clusters, previously identified as a source of xenon depolarization and a cause for SEOP inefficiency, for which we are able to set an upper limit of 8.3×1015 Rb dimers per cm3.

Low-Concentration Measurements of Nuclear Spin-Induced Optical Rotation Using SABRE Hyperpolarization.

Project description:Nuclear spin-induced optical rotation (NSOR) is a promising phenomenon for molecular structure elucidation due to its sensitivity to electronic structure near atomic nuclei. It is the only experimentally verified nuclear magneto-optic effect (NMOE), so far observed usually in neat liquids or in concentrated binary mixtures, with the proportion of the minor component at least 10%. We report a method to extend the lower-concentration range of NSOR measurements by 2 orders of magnitude by employing continuous-flow SABRE (signal amplification by reversible exchange) hyperpolarization. This approach significantly increases the sensitivity of NSOR and enables its detection in dilute samples, as demonstrated with measurements of NSOR of 90 mmol/L solutions of pyridine and pyrazine. The results are compared with first-principles calculations, and good agreement is found. The possibility to measure low-concentration solutions significantly extends the pool of samples available for further studies of NMOEs.

SPIN reveals genome-wide landscape of nuclear compartmentalization

Project description:We develop a new computational method called SPIN (Spatial Position Inference of the Nuclear genome) to identify genome-wide chromosome localization patterns relative to multiple nuclear compartments. SPIN states correlations with other features of genome structure and function, such as Hi-C subcompartments, TADs (Dixon et al., 2012; Nora et al., 2012), histone modification, and DNA replication timing.

Engineering the spin couplings in atomically crafted spin chains on an elemental superconductor.

Project description:Magnetic atoms on a superconductor give rise to Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states within the superconducting energy gap. A spin chain of magnetic adatoms on an s-wave superconductor may lead to topological superconductivity accompanied by the emergence of Majorana modes at the chain ends. For their usage in quantum computation, it is a prerequisite to artificially assemble the chains and control the exchange couplings between the spins in the chain and in the substrate. Here, using a scanning tunneling microscope tip, we demonstrate engineering of the energy levels of the YSR states by placing interstitial Fe atoms in close proximity to adsorbed Fe atoms on an oxidized Ta surface. Based on this prototype platform, we show that the interaction within a long chain can be strengthened by linking the adsorbed Fe atoms with the interstitial ones. Our work adds an important step towards the controlled design and manipulation of Majorana end states.

A general charge transport picture for organic semiconductors with nonlocal electron-phonon couplings.

Project description:The nonlocal electron-phonon couplings in organic semiconductors responsible for the fluctuation of intermolecular transfer integrals has been the center of interest recently. Several irreconcilable scenarios coexist for the description of the nonlocal electron-phonon coupling, such as phonon-assisted transport, transient localization, and band-like transport. Through a nearly exact numerical study for the carrier mobility of the Holstein-Peierls model using the matrix product states approach, we locate the phonon-assisted transport, transient localization and band-like regimes as a function of the transfer integral (V) and the nonlocal electron-phonon couplings (ΔV), and their distinct transport behaviors are analyzed by carrier mobility, mean free path, optical conductivity and one-particle spectral function. We also identify an "intermediate regime" where none of the established pictures applies, and the generally perceived hopping regime is found to be at a very limited end in the proposed regime paradigm.

Tuning the effective spin-orbit coupling in molecular semiconductors.

Project description:The control of spins and spin to charge conversion in organics requires understanding the molecular spin-orbit coupling (SOC), and a means to tune its strength. However, quantifying SOC strengths indirectly through spin relaxation effects has proven difficult due to competing relaxation mechanisms. Here we present a systematic study of the g-tensor shift in molecular semiconductors and link it directly to the SOC strength in a series of high-mobility molecular semiconductors with strong potential for future devices. The results demonstrate a rich variability of the molecular g-shifts with the effective SOC, depending on subtle aspects of molecular composition and structure. We correlate the above g-shifts to spin-lattice relaxation times over four orders of magnitude, from 200 to 0.15 μs, for isolated molecules in solution and relate our findings for isolated molecules in solution to the spin relaxation mechanisms that are likely to be relevant in solid state systems.

Spin splitting in 2D monochalcogenide semiconductors.

Project description:We report ab initio calculations of the spin splitting of the uppermost valence band (UVB) and the lowermost conduction band (LCB) in bulk and atomically thin GaS, GaSe, GaTe, and InSe. These layered monochalcogenides appear in four major polytypes depending on the stacking order, except for the monoclinic GaTe. Bulk and few-layer ε-and γ -type, and odd-number β-type GaS, GaSe, and InSe crystals are noncentrosymmetric. The spin splittings of the UVB and the LCB near the Γ-point in the Brillouin zone are finite, but still smaller than those in a zinc-blende semiconductor such as GaAs. On the other hand, the spin splitting is zero in centrosymmetric bulk and even-number few-layer β-type GaS, GaSe, and InSe, owing to the constraint of spatial inversion symmetry. By contrast, GaTe exhibits zero spin splitting because it is centrosymmetric down to a single layer. In these monochalcogenide semiconductors, the separation of the non-degenerate conduction and valence bands from adjacent bands results in the suppression of Elliot-Yafet spin relaxation mechanism. Therefore, the electron- and hole-spin relaxation times in these systems with zero or minimal spin splittings are expected to exceed those in GaAs when the D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation mechanism is also suppressed.

Integrated paramagnetic resonance of high-spin Co(II) in axial symmetry: chemical separation of dipolar and contact electron-nuclear couplings.

Project description:Integrated paramagnetic resonance, utilizing electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), NMR, and electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR), of a series of cobalt bis-trispyrazolylborates, Co(Tp ( x )) 2, are reported. Systematic substitutions at the ring carbons and on the apical boron provide a unique opportunity to separate through-bond and through-space contributions to the NMR hyperfine shifts for the parent, unsubstituted Tp complex. A simple relationship between the chemical shift difference (delta H - delta Me) and the contact shift of the proton in that position is developed. This approach allows independent extraction of the isotropic hyperfine coupling, A iso, for each proton in the molecule. The Co..H contact coupling energies derived from the NMR, together with the known metrics of the compounds, were used to predict the ENDOR couplings at g perpendicular. Proton ENDOR data is presented that shows good agreement with the NMR-derived model. ENDOR signals from all other magnetic nuclei in the complex ( (14)N, coordinating and noncoordinating, (11)B and (13)C) are also reported.
