Methods are reported for the preparation of mixed-carboxylate versions of the [Mn12O12(O2CR)16(H2O)4] family of single-molecule magnets (SMMs). [Mn12O12(O2CCHCl2)8(O2CCH2But)8(H2O)3] (5) and [Mn12O12(O2CHCl2)8(O2CEt)8(H2O)3] (6) have been…
The Mn12Ac single-molecule magnet has been converted for the first time into a form that contains non-carboxylate ligands. Reaction of Mn12Ac with diphenylphosphinic acid converts it into the title compound in which eight of the acetate…
The magnetization relaxation of Mn12 single-molecule magnets (SMMs) does not follow a simple Arrhenius law, even for data collected at low frequencies (5-1500 Hz) due to contributions from relaxation pathways via excited states with larger…
Multiple relaxation times detected in the ac magnetic susceptibility of several single-molecule magnets have been always assigned to extrinsic factors, such as nonequivalent magnetic centers or effects of intermolecular interactions in the…
A novel angle-swept high-frequency EPR (HFEPR) technique is described that enables in-situ alignment of single-crystal samples containing low-symmetry magnetic species such as single-molecule magnets (SMMs). This cavity-based method…
Time-resolved inelastic neutron scattering measurements on an array of single-crystals of the single-molecule magnet Mn12ac are presented. The data facilitate a spectroscopic investigation of the slow relaxation of the magnetization in this…
A new high symmetry Mn12 oxocarboxylate cluster [Mn12O12(CN-o-C6H4CO2)12(CH3CO2)4(H2O)4]*8CH2Cl2 (1) with mixed carboxylate ligands is reported. It was synthesized by the standard carboxylate substitution method. 1 crystallizes in the…

Four discrete MnIII/MnII tetra-nuclear complexes with double-cuboidal core were synthesized. dc magnetic measurements show that both Mn2+ - Mn3+ and Mn3+ - Mn3+ magnetic interactions are ferromagnetic in three samples leading to an S = 9…
The magnetic properties of a monolayer of Mn12 single molecule magnets grafted onto a Si substrate have been investigated using depth-controlled $\beta$-detected nuclear magnetic resonance. A low energy beam of spin polarized radioactive…
Simple methods are presented allowing the determination of the magnetic anisotropy axes of a crystal of a single-molecule magnet (SMM). These methods are used to determine an upper bound of the easy axis tilts in a standard Mn12-Ac crystal.…
This article takes a broad view of the understanding of magnetic bistability and magnetic quantum tunneling in single-molecule magnets (SMMs), focusing on three families of relatively simple, low-nuclearity transition metal clusters: spin S…
We study Mn12O12(C6H5COO)16(H2O)4 (Mn12-Ph) single-molecule magnets on highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) using low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (LT-STM) experiments. We report Mn12-Ph in isolation, resembling single…
The preparations, X-ray structures, and detailed physical characterizations are presented for two new mixed-valence tetranuclear manganese complexes that function as single-molecule magnets (SMM's): [Mn4(hmp)6Br2(H2O)2]Br2.4H2O and…
Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) with chemically tailorable properties are potential building blocks for quantum computing, high-density magnetic memory, and spintronics.1 2 3,4 These applications require isolated or few molecules on…
We investigate the magnetic properties of three Mn$_6$ single molecule magnets by means of inelastic neutron scattering and frequency domain magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The experimental data reveal that small structural distortions of…
Single-molecule transistors provide a unique experimental tool to investigate the coupling between charge transport and the molecular degrees of freedom in individual molecules. One interesting class of molecules for such experiments are…
The one-body tunnel picture of single-molecule magnets (SMMs) is not always sufficient to explain the measured tunnel transitions. An improvement to the picture is proposed by including also two-body tunnel transitions such as spin-spin…
The discovery a decade ago that individual molecules can function as magnetizable magnets provided a new, 'bottom-up' approach to nanoscale magnetic materials, and such molecules have since been called single-molecule magnets (SMMs). Each…
A distribution of internal transverse magnetic fields has been observed in single molecule magnet (SMM) Mn12-BrAc in the pure magnetic quantum tunneling (MQT) regime. Magnetic relaxation experiments at 0.4 K are used to produce a hole in…
