Abstract

Quantum dynamics time evolution of a molecular magnet Fe8 interacting with an electron nuclear spin is studied by solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equations. It is found that the variation of Fe8 magnetization and the nuclear spin crucially depends on the interaction strength. The time evolution of the entanglement between the injecting electron and Fe8 is evaluated. It is observed that the entanglement oscillates in time and is tightly related to the spin variation of the injecting electron. From these characteristics, the technique for the reversing and read-out of Fe8 spin states is suggested.
