Molecular systems are promising candidates for quantum information technologies due to their reproducible nature and chemical tailorability. Photogenerated spin qubits are of interest as they form highly spin-polarised initial states e.g. in molecular systems undergoing singlet fission (SF), a process which can lead to both triplet and quintet states[1]. Furthermore, these states allow for optical detection[2] strategies to be implemented. We study a series of pentacene dimers with different linkers using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. We investigate the role of linker geometry on relative spin state yields[3] and the influence of excitation wavelength on quintet sublevel populations[4]. Furthermore, we show how some dimers exhibit long-lived quintet states, examine the coherence properties, and investigate optical detectability in these dimers. Understanding the relationship between the spin properties and molecular structure will allow for realization of SF systems for quantum technologies.
