Abstract:
Photoexcited organic chromophores appended to stable radicals can serve as qubit and/or qudit candidates for quantum information applications. 1,6,7,12‐Tetra‐(4‐ tert ‐butylphenoxy)‐perylene‐3,4 : 9,10‐bis(dicarboximide) (tpPDI) linked to a partially deuterated α,γ‐bisdiphenylene‐β‐phenylallyl radical (BDPA‐ d 16 ) was synthesized and characterized by time‐resolved optical and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopies. Photoexcitation of tpPDI‐BDPA‐ d 16 results in ultrafast radical‐enhanced intersystem crossing to produce a quartet state ( Q ) followed by formation of a spin‐polarized doublet ground state ( D 0 ). Pulse‐EPR experiments confirmed the spin multiplicity of Q and yielded coherence times of T m =2.1±0.1 μs and 2.8±0.2 μs for Q and D 0 , respectively. BDPA‐ d 16 eliminates the dominant 1 H hyperfine couplings, resulting in a single narrow line for both the Q and D 0 states, which enhances the spectral resolution needed for good qubit addressability.
