Abstract
Two new molecular magnets, the dodecanuclear manganese complexes of the type [Mn12O12(O2CR)16(H2O)4] (known for R = CH3, new for R = o-ClC6H4, o-BrC6H4) have contributed to a better quantum mechanical understanding of single-molecule magnets. For instance, appreciable differences in the steps seen in the magnetization hysteresis loops of these high-spin clusters are attributed to changes in the rates of magnetization tunneling from one complex to another.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
