The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $655,882 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the University of Texas at Austin. The grant, awarded on September 15, 2025 and running through August 31, 2028, supports a research project led by Professors Sean Roberts and Niels Damrauer, along with collaborators from the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom. The project aims to investigate unique quantum states generated by singlet fission in molecular systems, with the goal of furthering the fundamental understanding of how quantum entanglement impacts excited state phenomena. The research team will develop rigid molecular dimers and oligomers that undergo singlet fission and use advanced optical and magnetic resonance spectroscopies, as well as open quantum-systems theory, to characterize the ability of these materials to generate and sustain quantum mechanical entanglement. Findings from this project could have implications for the development of quantum-based technologies in areas such as sensing and chemical catalysis, while also creating research and training opportunities for graduate students in quantum information science.
