Recent progress on scanning tunneling microscopy has made it possible to position (in
atomic-scale accuracy) and probe single magnetic atom on material surfaces. Targeting the …

The stability of magnetic information stored in surface adsorbed single‐molecule magnets is
of critical interest for applications in nanoscale data storage or quantum computing. The …

In an effort to improve the spin coupling in single-molecule magnets, we rationally designed
a new building-block molecule with significantly enhanced spin coupling compared to a …

Molecular magnetism is an interdisciplinary research area, which deals with design,
synthesis and physical characterization as well as the theoretical modeling of molecular …

The prime feature of a magnet is to retain a significant fraction of its saturation magnetization
in the absence of an external magnetic field. Realizing magnetic remanence in a single …

The understanding that magnetic behavior of materials derives from electrically charged
particles within was established more than 2 centuries ago. 1 This was almost 80 years …

Many elements in the periodic table show a magnetic moment as free atoms. However, only
iron, cobalt, nickel, and a few rare-earths and their alloys exhibit ferromagnetic properties in …

The controlled deposition, characterization and manipulation of single molecule magnets
(SMMs) on surfaces is one of the crucial points to be addressed with regard to their possible …
