Mixed-valence clusters: Prospects for single-molecule magnetoelectrics

Partial decarboxylation of hafnium oxide clusters for high resolution lithographic applications

“…We do not propose a Hf-Hf bond formation of two Hf(III) centers because mixed-valence metal oxo clusters are very popular in the literature. 30 We propose a six hafnium cluster B bearing five Hf(IV) and one Hf(III) centers. Aggregation occurs between coordinatively unsaturated B and 1-OH, of which one Hf(III) will be oxidized by H 2 O to yield a fully oxidized dimer D. This oxidation takes place when the EUV-exposed film is open to air.…”

Zero‐field Slow Magnetic Relaxation Behavior of Dy2 in a Series of Dinuclear {Ln2} (Ln=Dy, Tb, Gd and Er) Complexes: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study

“…Dinuclear lanthanide complexes being the simplest molecular units can provide a detailed insight into the magnetic interactions between spin carriers. A thorough investigation of such systems can enhance understanding regarding the magnetic exchange between lanthanide ions and the favourable alignment of anisotropy axes [15–22] . These elements can be regulated by the coordination sphere and/or bridging ligands which behave as superexchange pathways [23–28] .…”

Magnetically bistable cobalt-dioxolene complexes with a tetradentate N-donor base

“…Since mentioned rearrangements are usually accompanied by a change of the spin states of the complexes, the compounds showing VT can be regarded as promising candidates for the design of molecular switches, displays, sensors, photoresponsive devices or key substructures for molecular electronics and spintronics. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] To date, the VT process is known for complexes of various transition metals (Mn, Fe, Co, V, Ni, Ru, Rh), [14][15][16][17][18] lanthanides (Yb) 19 and main-group elements (e.g., Sn). 20 Detailed insight into the VT of p-block element compounds can be found in the review.…”
