  • Molecular magnets may serve as engineerable spin qubit candidates for quantum information science; however, the magnetic fields often used for control can be challenging to confine. Now, it has been shown that well-designed mononuclear Mn(II) complexes demonstrate enhanced spin–electric coupling, providing guidance for electrically controllable molecular spin qubits.

  • Paramagnetic heterometallic rings have long been considered as possible qubits within a quantum information processing system. Here, the authors employ supramolecular chemistry to fabricate multiple rings around multi-armed threads, as an important step towards generating useful qubit arrays.

  • Behaviour similar to that of the 'pseudogap' regime in unconventional superconductors is reported in a family of superconducting organic molecular metals. The 'pseudogap' signature that was measured (fluctuating superconductivity above the critical temperature) is most pronounced in those samples that are close to being in a Mott insulating state, suggesting a close relationship between the two phenomena.

  • Molecular electron spins are promising qubit candidates, however physical implementation of quantum gates is challenging. Little et al. explore the implementation of two-qubit entangling gates between nitroxide spin centres by pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance, building on NMR quantum computing protocols.

  • Magnetic scattering may profoundly modify the electronic properties of a topological insulator. Here, Nam et al. report a method enabling separation of the effects of magnetic and non-magnetic scattering by decorating the surface of topological insulators with molecules.

  • The nuclear spin of individual atoms is polarized by the tunnelling current from a scanning tunnelling microscope tip, enabling nuclear magnetic resonance to sense the local magnetic environment.

  • The transfer of information between processing entities and memory is crucial for quantum computation; it is challenging because the process must remain coherent at all times to preserve the quantum nature of the information. This paper demonstrates coherent storage and readout of information between electron-spin processing elements and memory elements based on a nuclear spin.

  • The resonating valence bond state is a spin-liquid state where spins continuously alter their singlet partners. Here Yang et al. use spin-1/2 atoms precision-placed by a scanning tunnelling microscope to create artificial quantum magnets exhibiting the resonating valence bond state.

  • By functionalizing molecular graphene nanoribbons with stable spin-bearing nitronyl nitroxide radical groups, delocalized magnetic edge states are observed, with microsecond-scale spin coherence times.

  • Although quantum physics underpins the behaviour of nanoscale objects, its role in nanoscience has been mostly limited to determining the static, equilibrium properties of small systems. This Review describes seminal developments and new directions for the explicit exploitation of quantum coherence in nanoscale systems, a research area termed quantum-coherent nanoscience.
