During the last years there has been a high interest in the development of new purely-organic single-component conductors. Very recently, we have reported a new neutral radical conductor based on the perchlorotriphenylmethyl (PTM) radical moiety link...
Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) based on lanthanide ions display the largest known blocking temperatures and are the best candidates for molecular magnetic devices. Understanding their physical properties is a paramount task for the further developmen...
Electrochemical oxidation of a solution containing KDy(hfac)4 (hfac, hexafluoroacetyacetone) and Bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF) afforded a hybrid material formulated as [β′-(BEDT-TTF)2Dy(CF3COO)4∙MeCN]n. The complex crystallizes in...
Isostructural Ln(III) mononuclear complexes [Ln(NO3)2L]PF6·MeCN (Ln = Nd, Tb, or Dy; L denotes a helical hexa-dentate ligand) were synthesized, and their slow magnetic relaxation behavior was investigated. In these complexes, oblate-type Ln(III) ions...
The review presents an overview of the organic radicals that have been designed and synthesized recently, and their magnetic properties are discussed. The π-conjugated organic radicals such as phenalenyl systems, functionalized nitronylnitroxides, be...
Multifunctional Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) or Single-Ion Magnets (SIMs) are intriguing molecule-based materials presenting an association of the slow magnetic relaxation with other physical properties. In this article, we present an example of a...
Recent studies revealed that magnetic molecules with single spin centers showed exciting phenomena related to quantum information processing, such as long quantum coherence times and Rabi oscillations. In this review, we go over these phenomena accor...
The effect of strain on the CeNi5 system has been investigated using density functional theory (DFT). The studies have shown that localised Ce 4f and Ni 3d states carry the magnetic moment of the material. The Ce 4f moment remains relatively unchange...
Information concerning the structures of compounds of rare earth elements with carboxylic acids and a β-diketone containing stable organometallic moieties that we obtained previously is presented. Additional results for 15 complexes with the [Gd2O2]...
Simulating the evolution of quantum systems on a classical computer is a yellow very challenging task, which could be easily tackled by digital quantum simulators. These are intrinsically quantum devices whose parameters can be controlled in order to...
