Synthesis and magnetic properties of Mn12-based single molecular magnets with benzene and pentafluorobenzene carboxylate ligands

We report on the synthesis and magnetic properties of Mn12-based single molecular magnets (SMMs) with benzene and pentafluorobenzene carboxylate ligands. The changes in ligand structure are shown to have a decisive effect on magnetic properties of produced complexes. The compound with benzene demonstrates unusual magnetic behaviour, namely, temperature dependencies of magnetization taken under the zero field cooled and field cooled conditions are split below 10 K and furthermore remnant magnetization and coercive force remain nonzero in this temperature range. In contrast, compound with pentafluorobenzene displays the customary signatures of a blocking temperature at 3K. The effect of ligand substitution was theoretically studied within local density approximation taking into account on-site Coloumb repulsion. Calculation results confirm that the electronic structure and the magnetic exchange interactions between different Mn atoms strongly depend on the type of ligands.

Spin-transfer mechanism of ferromagnetism in polymerized fullerenes: $Ab initio$ calculations

A mechanism of the high temperature ferromagnetism in polymerized fullerenes is suggested. It is assumed that some of the C$_{60}$ molecules in the crystal become magnetically active due to spin and charge transfer from the paramagnetic impurities (atoms or groups), such as hydrogen, fluorine, hydroxyl group OH, amino group NH$_2$, or methyl group CH$_3$, dispersed in the fullerene matrix. The exchange interaction between the spins localized on the magnetically active fullerenes is evaluated using \textit{ab initio} calculations. The nearest neighbour and next nearest neighbour exchange interaction is found to be in the range $0.1÷0.3 $ eV, that is, high enough to account for the room temperature ferromagnetism.

Magnetic properties of carbon phases synthesized using high pressure-high temperature treatment

Two sets of samples were synthesized at 3.5 GPa near the point of C60 cage collapse at different annealing times. A clear structural transformation from mixture of C60 polymeric phases to graphite-like hard carbon phase was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Magnetic force microscopy and superconducting quantum interference device were used to characterize the magnetic properties of the synthesized samples. We found that the sample preparation conditions used in this study are not suitable to produce bulk magnetic carbon.
