A dimeric sesquiterpene, gochnatiolide A
The title compound [systematic name: 5′a-hydroxy-1′,3,6,8′-tetrakis(methylene)-3a,4,5,5′,5′a,6,6′,6a,7,7′,7′a,8′,9a,9b,10′a,10′b-hexadecahydrospiro[azuleno[4,5-b]furan-9(2H),3′-[3H]benz[1,8]azuleno[4,5-b]furan]-2,2′,8,9′(1′H,3H,4′H)-tetrone acetone 0.92-solvate], C30H30O7·0.92C3H6O, is a dimeric sequiterpene formed by a cyclohexane system connecting two monomeric sesquiterpene lactone units of dehydrozaluzanin C. It was isolated from Ainsliaea henryi
Tetraaquadiimidazolenickel(II) naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate
The triclinic unit cell of the title compound, [Ni(C3H4N2)2(H2O)4](C10H6O6S2), contains one centrosymmetric cation and one centrosymmetric anion. In the cation, the NiII ion is six-coordinated by two imidazole ligands [Ni—N = 2.0568 (14) Å] and four water molecules [both independent Ni—O distances are 2.098 (1) Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. Intermolecular O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds form an extensive three-dimensional network, which consolidates the crystal packing
Optimal control of the silicon-based donor electron spin quantum computing
We demonstrate how gradient ascent pulse engineering optimal control methods
can be implemented on donor electron spin qubits in Si semiconductors with an
architecture complementary to the original Kane's proposal. We focus on the
high-fidelity controlled-NOT (CNOT) gate and explicitly find its digitized
control sequences by optimizing its fidelity over the external controls of the
hyperfine A and exchange J interactions. This high-fidelity CNOT gate has an
error of about , below the error threshold required for fault-tolerant
quantum computation, and its operation time of 100ns is about 3 times faster
than 297ns of the proposed global control scheme. It also relaxes significantly
the stringent distance constraint of two neighboring donor atoms of 10~20nm as
reported in the original Kane's proposal to about 30nm in which surface A and J
gates may be built with current fabrication technology. The effects of the
control voltage fluctuations, the dipole-dipole interaction and the electron
spin decoherence on the CNOT gate fidelity are also discussed.Comment: 4 figures, accepted as a Rapid Communication by Phys. Rev.
