• Abstract summary: We propose to focus on electron-transfer processes occurring at the single-molecule level. We design simple magnetic resonance experiments, exploiting a qubit as a highly sensitive and coherent magnetic sensor. We show that information could even be obtained from time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance experiments on a randomly-oriented solution of molecules.

• Abstract: Understanding chiral induced spin-selectivity (CISS), resulting from charge transport through helical systems, has recently inspired many experimental and theoretical efforts, but is still object of intense debate. In order to assess the nature of CISS, we propose to focus on electron-transfer processes occurring at the single-molecule level. We design simple magnetic resonance experiments, exploiting a qubit as a highly sensitive and coherent magnetic sensor, to provide clear signatures of the acceptor polarization. Moreover, we show that information could even be obtained from time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance experiments on a randomly-oriented solution of molecules. The proposed experiments will unveil the role of chiral linkers in electron-transfer and could also be exploited for quantum computing applications.

  We propose a pump-probe spin resonance spectroscopy approach, based on microwave pump fields and electron probes. We investigate how quantum spin systems couple to electron matter waves through their magnetic moments. This could enable state-selective observation of spin dynamics on the nanoscale and indirect measurement of the environment of the examined spin systems.

  We show that CISS can be observed in achiral systems driven by an external circularly polarized laser field in the framework of Floquet engineering. To obtain a wider range of energies for large spin polarization, a combination of chiral molecules and light-matter interactions is considered.

  Magnetic field effects (MFE) in certain chemical reactions have been well established in the last five decades. We employ elaborate and realistic models of radical-pairs, considering its coupling to the local spin environment and the sensor. For two model systems, we derive signals of MFE detectable even in the weak coupling regime between radical-pair and NV quantum sensor.

• Steady entangled-state generation via cross-Kerr effect in a ferrimagnetic crystal [13.076481031937163]
  In solid-state spin systems, the collective spin motion in a single crystal embodies multiple magnetostatic modes. Recently, it was found that the cross-Kerr interaction between the higher-order magnetostatic mode and the Kittel mode introduces a new operable degree of freedom. We propose a scheme to entangle two magnon modes via the cross-Kerr nonlinearity when the bias field is inhomogeneous and the system is driven.

  We study the physics of a magnetic molecule described by a "giant" spin with multiple $d > 2$ spin states. We derive an expression for the output modes in the dispersive regime of operation. We find that the measurement of the cavity transmission allows to uniquely determine the spin state of the qudits.

  Electrical control of spins at the nanoscale offers architectural advantages in spintronics. Recent demonstrations of electric-field (E-field) sensitivities in molecular spin materials are tantalising. E-field sensitivities reported so far are rather weak, prompting the question of how to design molecules with stronger spin-electric couplings.
