Tunneling between the two lowest energy levels of single molecule magnets with Ising type anisotropy, accompanied by the emission or absorption of phonons, is considered. Quantitatively accurate calculations of the rates for such tunneling…
We review the present state of theory and experiments on the quantum tunneling of magnetization in mesoscopic spin systems. Most attention is paid to the relaxation of magnetization in the molecular complexes Mn12 and Fe8. The role of the…
The spin-lattice relaxation rate $T_{1}^{-1}$ and NMR spectra of $^1$H in single crystal molecular magnets of Fe8 have been measured down to 15 mK. The relaxation rate $T_1^{-1}$ shows a strong temperature dependence down to 400 mK. The…
We measure magnetization changes in a single crystal of the single-molecule magnet Fe8 when exposed to intense, short (<20 $\mu$s) pulses of microwave radiation resonant with the m = 10 to 9 transition. We find that radiation induces a…
We argue that to explain recent resonant tunneling experiments on crystals of Mn$_{12}$ and Fe$_8$, particularly in the low-T limit, one must invoke dynamic nuclear spin and dipolar interactions. We show the low-$T$, short-time relaxation…
The role of spin polarized reservoirs in quantum tunneling of magnetization and relaxation processes in a single molecular magnet (SMM) is investigated theoretically. The SMM is exchange-coupled to the reservoirs and also subjected to a…
Magnetic switching of a single molecular magnet (SMM) due to spin-polarized current flowing between ferromagnetic metallic electrodes is investigated theoretically. Magnetic moments of the electrodes are assumed to be collinear and parallel…
Below 360 mK, Fe magnetic molecular clusters are in the pure quantum relaxation regime and we show that the predicted square-root time relaxation is obeyed, allowing us to develop a new method for watching the evolution of the distribution…
A characteristic of spin reversal in the presence of phonon-bottleneck is the deviation of the magnetization cycle from a reversible function into an opened hysterezis cycle. In recent experiments on molecular magnets (e.g. V$_{15}$ and…
Magnetic relaxation in molecular magnets under a sweeping field is studied by taking into account local stray fields. It is found that the randomness of local stray field leads to a distribution of the relaxation rate which subsequently…
The strong influence of nuclear spins on resonant quantum tunneling in the molecular cluster Fe_8 is demonstrated for the first time by comparing the relaxation rate of the standard Fe_8 sample with two isotopic modified samples: (i) 56_Fe…
We present a complete theory of the spin torque phenomena in a ultrasmall nanomagnet coupled to non-collinear ferromagnetic electrodes through tunnelling junctions. This model system can be described by a simple microscopic model which…
The reversal of the magnetization of crystals of molecular magnets that have a large spin and high anisotropy barrier generally proceeds below the blocking temperature by quantum tunneling. This is manifested as a series of controlled steps…
Magnetization reversal in ferro- and ferrimagnets is a well-known archetype of non-equilibrium processes, where the volume fractions of the oppositely magnetized domains vary and perfectly compensate each other at the coercive magnetic…
Magnetization reversal in magnetic nanostructures is investigated numerically over time-scales ranging from fast switching processes on a picosecond scale to thermally activated reversal on a microsecond time-scale. A simulation of the…
A magnetic particle with atomic spins ordered in an unstable direction is an example of a false vacuum that decays via excitation of internal spin waves. Coupled evolution of the particle's magnetization (or the vacuum state) and spin…
Magnetization reversal in magnetic particles is one of the fundamental issues in magnetic data storage. Technological improvements require the understanding of dynamical magnetization reversal processes at nanosecond time scales. New…
Magnetization measurements made in small fields as a function of temperature reveal an unusual equilibrium below 900 mK for the molecular nano-magnet Fe_8. Measurements of the relaxation of the magnetization demonstrate that the approach to…
The magnetic properties of dilute Li$_2$(Li$_{1-x}$Fe$_x$)N with $x \sim 0.001$ are dominated by the spin of single, isolated Fe atoms. Below $T = 10$ K the spin-relaxation times become temperature-independent indicating a crossover from…
Spin tunneling in the particular case of the magnetic molecular cluster octanuclear iron(III), Fe8, is treated by an effective Hamiltonian that allows for an angle-based description of the process. The presence of an external magnetic field…
