Study of a Novel Series of Isostructural Heterometallic 3d-4f Single Molecule Magnets with INS
A major goal in tailoring single molecule magnets (SMMs) is to raise their blocking temperature, below which magnetic hysteresis on the molecular scale is observed, to technologically relevant temperatures. A crucial factor in the game is the magnetic anisotropy, and molecules containing both 3d and 4f metal ions are attractive candidates in this context. Understanding the magnetic anisotropy due to the Lanthanide ions in such systems is however challenging. In a recent breakthrough, a new family of isostructual M2Ln2 butterfly compounds were synthesized, which for the first time allows us to replace the 3d Fe ions by diamagnetic Al ions in isostructural 3d-4f-SMMs, and therefore unprecedented means to study the Lanthanide's anisotropy in such SMMs. Here we propose to measure the Er-containing members of this new family on the instrument IN5 or IN6.
