Quantum Algorithms

This thesis describes several new quantum algorithms. These include a polynomial time algorithm that uses a quantum fast Fourier transform to find eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a Hamiltonian operator, and that can be applied in cases for which all know classical algorithms require exponential time.

The Submillimeter-Wave Spectrum of Isotopic Methyl Cyanide

The laboratory submillimeter-wave rotational spectrum of the 13 CH 3 CN, CH 3 13 CN, and the CH 3 C 15 N isotopomers of methyl cyanide has been observed in natural abundance in the 294 to 607 GHz region. The maximum J and K values are 34 an 14, respectively. Fifteen additional CH 3 CN transitions up to K=21 were also measured. The transitions of all four species are fitted to a symmetric top Hamiltonian and the rotation and distortion constants are determined. The 14 N quadropole and spin rotation are also calculated and presented. Suggested values for many other parameters which could not be directly determined from the isotope spectra are calculated from the normal species values and isotope relationships. The determined and calculated constants should predict the spectrum of the three isotopomers to well over 1 THz accurately enough for astronomical assignments.

Utilizing Experimental-based Line Positions for Semi-empirical IR Line Lists

Molecular IR line lists computed from semi-empirically refined ab initio potential energy surface and high quality ab initio dipole moment surface may have line position accuracy typically within 0.01 - 0.05 cm−1. For high resolution spectroscopy databases, it is necessary to integrate the computed theoretical IR intensities with the line positions accurately determined from experiments and (or) reliably derived from Effective Hamiltonian models. However, it is not a trivial task, and the choices in reality are heavily contingent upon the coverage, consistency, and accuracy of the data available for a specific molecule or isotopologue. We will present several approaches applied to recent Ames IR line lists of CO 2 1, N 2 O 2 , and OCS to demonstrate how challenging such integration may become, and what we have learned From these projects. Discussions will focus on the relation between each different scenario and the corresponding choice or solution, including their advantages and limits, how the semi-empirical IR line lists can help, and what else may be needed for future improvements. We will emphasize that the “Theory+Experiment” synergy may still play significant role in the determination of the best line positions.

Quantum‐Classical Simulation of Quantum Field Theory by Quantum Circuit Learning

Abstract Quantum circuit learning is employed to simulate quantum field theories (QFTs). Typically, when simulating QFTs with quantum computers, significant challenges are encountered due to the technical limitations of quantum devices when implementing the Hamiltonian using Pauli spin matrices. To address this challenge, quantum circuit learning is leveraged, employing a compact configuration of qubits and low‐depth quantum circuits to predict real‐time dynamics in quantum field theories. The key advantage of this approach is that a single‐qubit measurement can accurately forecast various physical parameters, including fully‐connected operators. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this method, it is used to predict quench dynamics, chiral dynamics and jet production in a 1+1‐dimensional model of quantum electrodynamics. It is found that our predictions closely align with the results of rigorous classical calculations, exhibiting a high degree of accuracy. This hybrid quantum‐classical approach illustrates the feasibility of efficiently simulating large‐scale QFTs on cutting‐edge quantum devices.

On‐Surface Synthesis and Determination of the Open‐Shell Singlet Ground State of Tridecacene**

Abstract The character of the electronic structure of acenes has been the subject of longstanding discussion. However, convincing experimental evidence of their open‐shell character has so far been missing. Here, we present the on‐surface synthesis of tridecacene molecules by thermal annealing of octahydrotridecacene on a Au(111) surface. We characterized the electronic structure of the tridecacene by scanning probe microscopy, which reveals the presence of an inelastic signal at 126 meV. We attribute the inelastic signal to spin excitation from the singlet diradical ground state to the triplet excited state. To rationalize the experimental findings, we carried out many‐body ab initio calculations as well as model Hamiltonians to take into account the effect of the metallic substrate. Moreover, we provide a detailed analysis of how the dynamic electron correlation and virtual charge fluctuation between the molecule and metallic surface reduces the singlet‐triplet band gap. Thus, this work provides the first experimental confirmation of the magnetic character of tridecacene.

Elucidating the Role of Dimensionality on the Electronic Structure of the Van der Waals Antiferromagnet NiPS 3

Abstract The sustained interest in investigating magnetism in the 2D limit of insulating antiferromagnets is driven by the possibilities of discovering, or engineering, novel magnetic phases through layer stacking. However, due to the difficulty of directly measuring magnetic interactions in 2D antiferromagnets, it is not yet understood how intra layer magnetic interactions in insulating , strongly correlated, materials can be modified through layer proximity. Herein, the impact of reduced dimensionality in the model van der Waals antiferromagnet NiPS 3 is explored by measuring electronic excitations in exfoliated samples using Resonant Inelastic X‐ray Scattering (RIXS). The resulting spectra shows systematic broadening of NiS 6 multiplet excitations with decreasing layer count from bulk down to three atomic layers (3L). It is shown that these trends originate from a decrease in transition metal‐ligand and ligand–ligand hopping integrals, and by charge‐transfer energy evolving from Δ = 0.83 eV in the bulk to 0.37 eV in 3L NiPS 3 . Relevant intralayer magnetic exchange integrals computed from the electronic parameters exhibit a decrease in the average interaction strength with thickness. This study underscores the influence of inter layer electronic interactions on intra layer ones in insulating magnets, indicating that magnetic Hamiltonians in few‐layer insulating magnets can greatly deviate from their bulk counterparts.

The Hard Ferromagnetism in FePS 3 Induced by Non‐Magnetic Molecular Intercalation

Abstract Manipulating the magnetic ground states of 2D magnets is a focal point of recent research efforts. Various methods have demonstrated efficacy in modulating the magnetic properties inherent to van der Waals (vdW) magnetic systems. Herein, the emergence of robust anisotropic ferromagnetism within antiferromagnetic FePS 3 is unveiled via intercalation with non‐magnetic pyridinium ions. A one‐step ion exchange reaction facilitates the formation of energetically favorable B‐phase and metastable P‐phase. Notably, both B‐ and P‐phases manifest hard ferromagnetic behavior, featuring substantial unsaturated coercive fields (>7 T) and high Curie temperatures (72–87 K). First‐principles calculations elucidate the pivotal role of electron transfer from pyridinium ions to FePS 3 in engineering magnetic exchange interactions. Calculated effective spin Hamiltonian corroborates the observed hard ferromagnetism in intercalated FePS 3 . This study offers crucial insights into hard magnetism in intercalated vdW materials, thereby presenting promising avenues for 2D vdW magnet‐based magnetic devices.
