High-precision molecular manipulation techniques are used to control the distance between radical molecules on superconductors. Our results show that the molecules can host single electrons with a spin 1/2. By changing the distance between tip and sample, a quantum phase transition from the singlet to doublet ground state can be induced.

Copper oxide superconductors universally exhibit multiple forms of electronically ordered phases that break the native translational symmetry of the CuO planes. In underdoped cuprates with correlated metallic ground states, charge/spin stripes and incommensurate charge density waves (CDWs) have been experimentally observed over the years, while early theoretical studies also predicted the emergence of a Coulomb-frustrated 'charge crystal' phase in the very lightly doped, insulating limit of CuO planes. Here, we search for signatures of CDW order in very lightly hole-doped cuprates from the 123 family BaCuO (BCO; : Y or rare earth), by using resonant X-ray scattering, electron transport, and muon spin rotation measurements to resolve the electronic and magnetic ground states fully.

Fully aromatic helicenes are attractive building blocks for the construction of inherently chiral π-conjugated macrocyclic nanocarbons. These hitherto rare molecular architectures are envisaged to exhibit remarkable (chir)optical properties, self-assembly, charge/spin transport, induced ring current or a fascinating Möbius topology. Here the synthesis of helically chiral macrocycles that combine angular dibenzo[5]helicene units as corners and linear -stilbene-4,4'-diyl linkers as edges is reported.

Technologically relevant strongly correlated phenomena such as colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) and metal-insulator transitions (MIT) exhibited by perovskite manganites are driven and enhanced by the coexistence of multiple competing magneto-electronic phases. Such magneto-electronic inhomogeneity is governed by the intrinsic lattice-charge-spin-orbital correlations, which, in turn, are conventionally tailored in manganites via chemical substitution, charge doping, or strain engineering. Alternately, the recently discovered high entropy oxides (HEOs), owing to the presence of multiple-principal cations on a given sub-lattice, exhibit indications of an inherent magneto-electronic phase separation encapsulated in a single crystallographic phase.

Approximation based on perturbation theory is the foundation for most of the quantitative predictions of quantum mechanics, whether in quantum many-body physics, chemistry, quantum field theory, or other domains. Quantum computing provides an alternative to the perturbation paradigm, yet state-of-the-art quantum processors with tens of noisy qubits are of limited practical utility. Here, we introduce perturbative quantum simulation, which combines the complementary strengths of the two approaches, enabling the solution of large practical quantum problems using limited noisy intermediate-scale quantum hardware.
