Quantum Hardware Architecture based on Electron Scattering in Molecules

In this project, we aim to build a quantum computer based on electron scattering in molecules and electron-electron interactions. This innovative quantum hardware proposal, if successful, could lead to the first molecular quantum computer based on molecular electronics. While using organic molecules as quantum circuit components present challenges, overcoming them could have a profound impact on quantum hardware, bridging quantum hardware design with chemistry and molecular electronics. Additionally, this project has the potential to revitalize interest in the molecular electronics community, which has seen a decline in recent years. A key advantage of this hardware setup is its cost-effectiveness, as to fabricate organic molecules are far cheaper than superconducting materials. Given that single-molecule junctions can be realized experimentally, I believe we have the necessary tools to turn this setup into reality.
