Exploring Spin-Crossover Cobalt(II) Single-Ion Magnets as Multifunctional and Multiresponsive Magnetic Devices: Advancements and Prospects in Molecular Spintronics and Quantum Computing Technologies

Le résumé fourni par la source

Spin-crossover (SCO) and single-ion magnets (SIMs), or their mixed SCO-SIM derivatives, are a convenient solution in the evolution from molecular magnetism toward molecular spintronics and quantum computing. Herein, we report on the current trends and future directions on the use of mononuclear six-coordinate CoII SCO-SIM complexes with potential opto-, electro-, or chemo-active 2,6-pyridinediimine (PDI)- and 2,2′:6′,2′-terpyridine (TERPY)-type ligands as archetypical examples of multifunctional and multiresponsive magnetic devices for applications in molecular spintronics and quantum computing technologies. This unique class of spin-crossover cobalt(II) molecular nanomagnets is particularly well suited for addressing and scaling on different supports, like metal molecular junctions or carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) or metal-covalent organic frameworks (MCOFs), in order to measure the single-molecule electron transport and quantum coherence properties, which are two major challenges in single-molecule spintronics (SMS) and quantum information processing (QIP).
