Electronic transport properties and orientation of individual Mn12 single-molecule magnets
Individual Mn12 single-molecule magnets have been investigated by means of scanning tunneling spectroscopy at room temperature. Current-voltage characteristics of a Mn12 derivative are studied in detail and compared with simulations. A few-parameter scalar model for ballistic current flow through a single energy level is sufficient to describe the main features observed in scanning tunneling sp...
متن کاملSingle-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 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 ...
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 کاملControl of the transition temperatures of metallomesogens by specific interface design: application to Mn12 single molecule magnets.
Reaction of the Single Molecule Magnet [Mn(12)O(12)(CH(3)CO(2))(16)(H(2)O)(4)] (Mn(12)) with mesogenic dendritic ligands Li (i = 4, 5) quantitatively yields functional clusters [Mn(12)O(12)(Li-H)(16)(H(2)O)(4)] (i = 4, 5) that self-organize into a thermotropic SmA-type liquid crystalline phase. The perturbation of the molecular interface by methylation of the terminal mesogenic cyanobiphenyl gr...
