%0 Journal Article %T Theoretical determination of the spin-vibration coupling in the highly coherent molecular spin qubit [Cu(mnt)2]2- %A Luis Escalera Moreno %A Nicolas Suaud %A Alejandro Gaita Ari£żo %J Physics %D 2015 %I arXiv %X Herein we develop a methodology to determine the coupling between intramolecular vibrations and spin energy levels, a key for the rational design of molecular spin qubits. This methodology is demonstrated by applying it to the highly coherent complex [Cu(mnt)2]2- (mnt2- = 1,2-dicyanoethylene-1,2-dithiolate), as a theoretical attempt to rationalize the evolution of its decoherence rate at different temperatures. We also discuss general strategies to uncouple the qubit energy from local vibrations. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1512.05690v1
