Title: Group of Quantum Bits Acting as a Bit Using a Single-Domain Ferromagnet of Uniaxial Magnetic Ions

Abstract

Read/write operations with individual quantum bits (i.e., qbits) are a demanding concern to solve in quantum computing. To alleviate this difficulty, we considered the possibility of using a group of qbits that act collectively as a bit (hereafter, a group bit or a gbit, in short). A promising candidate for a gbit is a single-domain ferromagnet (SDF) independent of its size, which can be prepared as a magnet of well-separated uniaxial magnetic ions (UMIs) at sites of no electric dipole moment with their uniaxial axes aligned along one common direction. When magnetized, the UMIs of such a magnet have a ferromagnetic (FM) arrangement and the resulting SDF becomes a gbit with its two opposite moment orientations representing the |0⟩ and |1⟩ states of a bit. Here, we probed the requirements for such magnets and identified several 2H-perovskites as materials satisfying these requirements.
