An anisotropic high-spin qubit with long coherence time could scale the quantum system up. It has been proposed that Grover's algorithm can be implemented in such systems. Dimetallic aza[80]fullerenes M@CN (M = Y or Gd) possess an unpaired electron located between two metal ions, offering an opportunity to manipulate spin(s) protected in the cage for quantum information processing. Herein, we report the crystallographic determination of Gd@CN for the first time. This molecular magnet with a collective high-spin ground state (S = 15/2) generated by strong magnetic coupling (J = 350 ± 20 cm) has been unambiguously validated by magnetic susceptibility experiments. Gd@CN has quantum coherence and diverse Rabi cycles, allowing arbitrary superposition state manipulation between each adjacent level. The phase memory time reaches 5 μs at 5 K by dynamic decoupling. This molecule fulfills the requirements of Grover's searching algorithm proposed by Leuenberger and Loss.

Vibrational strong coupling of organic molecules embedded within graphene plasmon nanocavities facilitated by perfect absorbers.

The strong coupling between infrared photonic resonances and vibrational transitions of organic molecules is called vibrational strong coupling (VSC), which presents attractive prospects for modifying molecular chemical characteristics and behaviors. Currently, VSC studies suffer from limited bandwidth or enormous mode volumes. In addition, in certain instances, the absorption spectrum of VSC is weaker, thus impeding the effective monitoring of the VSC effect.

The realization of higher coupling strengths between coupled resonant modes enables exploration of compelling phenomena in diverse fields of physics and chemistry. In this study, we focus on the modal coupling between localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Au nanoparticles (Au-NPs) and Fabry-Pérot mode (p-NiO/Au film). The effects of nanoparticle size, projected surface coverage (PSC), interparticle distance (IPD), and arrangement to the coupling strength between the two modes are theoretically investigated using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method.

Rice cultivation generates huge amounts of on farm residues especially under mechanical harvesting. Paddy straw being recalcitrant hinders sowing of upcoming rabi crops like wheat and mustard. Non-environmental sustainable practice of on-farm burning of the paddy residues is being popularly followed for quick disposal of the agro-residues and land preparation.

Defining the Black population in Canadian health research: a scoping review protocol.

BMJ Open

Introduction: In the context of health research in Canada, various terms and labels have been employed to reference the Black population. This practice has had the unintended consequence of diminishing the comparability and efficiency of studies. Furthermore, using a broad term such as 'Black' may fail to encompass the diversity and intricacy of the ethnocultural backgrounds of people who are racialised as such.
