SUMMARY:Physical Chemistry Seminar Series: Ryan Hadt - Caltech
DESCRIPTION:About the Seminar:\nTitle:\nEnabling Molecular Quantum Information Science with Electron Spins \nAbstract:\nQuantum technologies based on molecular electron spin coherence afford unique potential in miniaturization\, spatial localization\, and tunability through synthetic chemistry and biomolecular integration. However\, many applications within molecular quantum information science hinge on slowing down spin relaxation\, a process that effectively leaks quantum information into the environment. Additionally\, applications such as quantum sensing with molecular quantum bits (qubits) have only recently undergone exploration. This talk will summarize the development and application of ligand field spin dynamics\, a molecular paradigm to construct spin relaxation structure-function relationships from physical inorganic spectroscopic observables. This approach elucidates the critical bonding\, symmetry\, and ligand field vibronic excited-state coupling factors enabling room temperature coherence\, as measured by pulse electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The talk will further describe the development of a new spectroscopic technique to achieve ultrafast\, all-optical measurements of molecular electron spin coherence in an unprecedented manner\, which opens the door to new synthetic design and applications of molecular qubits. \nAbout the Speaker:\nProf. Ryan G. Hadt is currently an assistant professor at the California Institute of Technology’s Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRyan G. Hadt received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in chemistry at the University of Minnesota Duluth (with V. N. Nemykin) and his Ph.D. at Stanford University (with E. I. Solomon). He was a visiting postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University (with D. G. Nocera) before continuing research at Argonne National Laboratory as a postdoctoral appointee (with L. X. Chen) and later as an Enrico Fermi Fellow. In 2018\, he joined the faculty in the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at the California Institute of Technology. Professor Hadt’s research interests are broadly based in the fundamental understanding of transition metal electronic structure\, with applications in catalysis\, photophysics\, and quantum information science.

SUMMARY:Physical Chemistry Seminar Series: David Waldeck (University of Pittsburgh)
DESCRIPTION:About the Seminar:\nTitle:\nAdventures with Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity \nAbstract:\nSince Louis Pasteur\, chemists have been fascinated by chirality\, however its connection with electron spin was not realized until the 21st century and its implications for chemistry and biochemistry is only beginning to be revealed. I will discuss chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS)\, which refers to the fact that charge polarization and charge transfer in chiral molecules (and materials) is accompanied by spin polarization and spin transfer. After I introduce some of the seminal works on CISS as background\, I will describe some of our recent studies that investigate the implications of CISS in chemistry. I will discuss experiments that probe the spin-dependence of electronic interaction with chiral molecules and spin selectivity in electron transfer reactions. In addition\, I will show that chiral electrodes can be used to improve the selectivity of electrochemical reactions which involve radical intermediates. \nAbout the Speaker:\nDavid Waldeck is a professor of chemistry and Director of the Petersen Institute of NanoScience and Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh. His research program uses methods of spectroscopy\, electrochemistry\, and microscopy to investigate primary processes in liquids\, solids\, and liquid/solid interfaces. In recent years\, his group has focused its efforts toward understanding the optoelectronic properties of nanoscale assemblies.
