Single-Molecule Magnets: Uranyl steps in the ring

Polly L. Arnold

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract / Description of output

Uranium and manganese cations have been combined in a wheel-shaped supramolecular assembly that retains its magnetic spin state after the external field is removed, with a high barrier to its relaxation. This cluster supports recent predictions of the usefulness of the actinides in single-molecule magnetic devices.
