Single-crystal 55Mn NMR spectra of two Mn12 single-molecule magnets.
The initial application is reported of single-crystal 55Mn NMR spectroscopy, and associated orientation dependence studies, to single-molecule magnets (SMMs). The studies were performed on two members of the Mn12 family of SMMs, [Mn12O12(O2CMe)16(H2O)4].2MeCO2H.4H2O (Mn12-Ac) and [Mn12O12(O2CCH2Br)16(H2O)4].4CH)Cl) (Mn12-BrAc). Single-crystal spectra give a dramatic improvement in the spectral ...
متن کاملEffect of Defects on the Line shape of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Signals from the Single-Molecule Magnet Mn12: A Theoretical Study
We herein estimate the effect of lattice defects on the line shape of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signals from a single crystal of the S = 10 single-molecule magnet Mn12 with the external magnetic field along the crystal c axis. A second-order perturbation treatment of an effective single-spin Hamiltonian indicates that a small, random, static misorientation of the magnetic symmetry a...
متن کاملLocal magnetic properties of a monolayer of Mn12 single molecule magnets.
The magnetic properties of a monolayer of Mn12 single molecule magnets grafted onto a silicon (Si) substrate have been investigated using depth-controlled beta-detected nuclear magnetic resonance. A low-energy beam of spin-polarized radioactive 8Li was used to probe the local static magnetic field distribution near the Mn12 monolayer in the Si substrate. The resonance line width varies strongly...
متن کاملTransverse field Ising ferromagnetism in Mn12-acetate-MeOH
We report measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of single crystals of Mn12-acetate-MeOH, a newlysynthesized high-symmetry variant of the original single molecule magnet Mn12-acetate. A comparison of these data to theory and to data for the Mn12-acetate material shows that Mn12-acetate-MeOH is a realization of a transverse-field Ising ferromagnet in contrast to the original Mn12-acetate ma...
متن کاملMn NMR spectra of Mn12 single-molecule magnets: Single crystal versus aligned powder studies
X-ray structural, magnetization and Mn single crystal NMR investigations of Mn12O12 (CH2BrCOO)16(4H2O) Æ 4CH2Cl2 indicate that this highly symmetric ðI 4Þ lattice, devoid of hydrogen bonding of the Mn12-framework with the molecules of lattice hydration, might be an improved model for studying single-molecule magnetism. Single crystal NMR yield much enhanced NMR data as compared to magnetically ...
