a Initialization of the triplet qubit. Spin polarization between two of the three triplet sublevels generated by photoexcitation and following spin-selective intersystem crossing (ISC) can be used as qubits. b Response of triplet qubits to the guest-induced structural change of a flexible MOF. DAT and D-MIL-53 are employed as triplet qubits and the flexible MOF, respectively. c Guest analyte molecules used in this research. H2O, 2-propanol (PrOH), pyridine (Py), 5-fluorouracil (FU), p-benzoquinone (BQ), THF, chloroform (CHCl3), ethyl acetate (EtAc), toluene (h-Tol), ethanol (EtOH), and acetonitrile (AcNt) are introduced to D-MIL-53⊃DAT.
