Determination of magnetic anisotropy in a multinuclear TbIII-based single-molecule magnet†
Abstract
Magneto-structural relationships were studied experimentally and theoretically for two enantiomorphic tetranuclear [CuTb]2 SMMs. For the first time, the determination of the magnetic anisotropy axis of an individual magnetic ion, Tb3+, was achieved in a polynuclear Tb3+-based SMM.
