The promising future of storing and processing quantized information at the molecular level
has been attracting the study of Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) for almost three decades …

In the early 1990s, great excitement followed the discovery that a molecular transition metal
coordination compound could, at liquid-helium temperatures, retain magnetization for long …

We report a monometallic dysprosium complex,[Dy (OtBu) 2 (py) 5][BPh4](5), that shows the
largest effective energy barrier to magnetic relaxation of Ueff= 1815 (1) K. The massive …

Herein we report air-stable Dy (III) and Er (III) single-ion magnets (SIMs) with pseudo-D5h
symmetry, synthesized from a sterically encumbered phosphonamide, tBuPO (NHiPr) 2 …

Over the past fifteen years or so, the study of f-element single-ion magnets (f-SIMs) has gone
from being a sub-discipline of molecular magnetism to an established field of research in its …

Abstract 3d–4f heterometallic discrete complexes have enjoyed increasing attraction in
recent decades because of their potential advantages to create new single-molecule …

A very basic tutorial-style introduction to Single-Molecule Magnetism, intended for a general
chemistry audience, is provided. This is followed by a review of the synthesis, structures and …

An ab initio methodology for the first‐principle derivation of crystal‐field (CF) parameters for
lanthanides is described. The methodology is applied to the analysis of CF parameters in …

Single-molecule magnets that contain one spin centre may represent the smallest possible
unit for spin-based computational devices. Such applications, however, require the …

Understanding quantum tunnelling of the magnetisation (QTM) in single-molecule magnets
(SMMs) is crucial for improving performance and achieving molecule-based information …
