Toward promising candidates of quantum information processing, the rapid development of
lanthanide-based single-molecule magnets (Ln-SMMs) highlights design strategies in …

Conspectus Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) can retain their magnetization status
preferentially after removal of the magnetic field below a certain temperature. The unique …

Lanthanide-based single-molecule magnets are leading materials for achieving
magnetization blocking at the level of one molecule. In this paper, we examine the physical …

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 …

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 …

Very recently the closely related fields of molecular spin qubits, single ion magnets and
single atom magnets have been shaken by unexpected results. We have witnessed a jump …

Single-molecule magnets are compounds that exhibit magnetic bistability caused by an
energy barrier for the reversal of magnetization (relaxation). Lanthanide compounds are …

Understanding the anisotropic electronic structure of lanthanide complexes is important in
areas as diverse as magnetic resonance imaging, luminescent cell labelling and quantum …

This review examines mononuclear metal complexes with high magnetic anisotropy and the
theoretical approaches used to rationalize their magnetic properties. Electronic structure …

Since the 1990s and the discovery of the first Single Molecule Magnets (SMMs), chemists
and physicists have been working in concert to elaborate such molecular systems and …
