The critical role of ultra-low-energy vibrations in the relaxation dynamics of molecular qubits

Understanding phonon-induced relaxation in molecular qubits is a crucial step in realizing their application potential. Garlatti at al. use a combination of inelastic X-ray scattering and density functional theory to investigate the role of low-energy phonons on spin relaxation of a prototypical mol...
