Dichlorido{2-[3-(dimethyl­ammonio)­propyl­imino­meth­yl]phenolato}zinc(II) hemihydrate

The title complex, [ZnCl2(C12H18N2O)]·0.5H2O, is a mononuclear zinc(II) compound derived from the zwitterionic form of the Schiff base 2-[3-(dimethyl­amino)propyl­imino­meth­yl]­phenol. The ZnII atom is four-coordinated by the imine N and the phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand, and by two chloride ions, in a distorted tetra­hedral coordination geometry. The dimethyl­ammonio group is disordered over two positions with site occupancies of 0.51 (3) and 0.49 (3). In the asymmetric unit, there is also a disordered water mol­ecule with a partial occupancy of 0.5. In the crystal structure, the water mol­ecules are linked to the Schiff base complex mol­ecules through inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Mol­ecules are further linked through additional inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the b axis

Dibromido{(E)-2-eth­oxy-6-[3-(methyl­ammonio)propyl­iminometh­yl]phenol­ato}zinc(II)

The title complex, [ZnBr2(C13H20N2O2)], is a mononuclear zinc(II) compound derived from the zwitterionic form of the Schiff base (E)-2-eth­oxy-6-((3-(methyl­amino)propyl­imino)meth­yl)phenol. The ZnII atom is four-coordinated by the imine N and phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand, and by two bromide ions, in a tetra­hedral coordination geometry. Adjacent mol­ecules are linked through inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the b axis

Implementing topological quantum manipulation with superconducting circuits

A two-component fermion model with conventional two-body interactions was recently shown to have anyonic excitations. We here propose a scheme to physically implement this model by transforming each chain of two two-component fermions to the two capacitively coupled chains of superconducting devices. In particular, we elaborate how to achieve the wanted operations to create and manipulate the topological quantum states, providing an experimentally feasible scenario to access the topological memory and to build the anyonic interferometry.Comment: 4 pages with 3 figures; V2: published version with minor updation
