Abstract

One of the driving forces behind technological progress is the discovery and development of suitable materials. In the emerging field of molecular quantum technologies, fully organic systems remain rare, even though they offer distinct advantages, particularly regarding scalability and synthetic flexibility. Our approach to bridging this gap relies on chromophore–radical dyads as a molecular platform. Upon light excitation, these assemblies generate triplet–radical systems in which spin-spin interactions between unpaired electrons can lead to multi-level qubits (i.e., qudits) that can be coherently manipulated. I will discuss the lessons we have learned from the design of these promising systems, with a particular focus on a supramolecular approach to photogenerated spin qudits.
