Molecular spintronics: the role of coordination chemistry.
2016
Welcome to this themed issue of Dalton Transactions entitled ‘Molecular spintronics: the role of coordination chemistry’.
Search for Coherent Elastic Scattering of Solar B8 Neutrinos in the XENON1T Dark Matter Experiment
2021
We report on a search for nuclear recoil signals from solar $^8$B neutrinos elastically scattering off xenon nuclei in XENON1T data, lowering the energy threshold from 2.6 keV to 1.6 keV. We develop a variety of novel techniques to limit the resulting increase in backgrounds near the threshold. No significant $^8$B neutrino-like excess is found in an exposure of 0.6 t $\times$ y. For the first time, we use the non-detection of solar neutrinos to constrain the light yield from 1-2 keV nuclear recoils in liquid xenon, as well as non-standard neutrino-quark interactions. Finally, we improve upon world-leading constraints on dark matter-nucleus interactions for dark matter masses between 3 GeV/…
Materials for molecular electronics and magnetism
2021
Functional molecular materials exhibiting, in particular, electrical, magnetic or optical properties have been an active focus of research over the last 50 years. These materials have been a source of inspiration in two interrelated areas of research, namely, molecular electronics and molecular magnetism, with important implications in biomedical areas. This themed issue highlights recent progress and perspectives in these important areas of materials science. The issue covers topics from the chemical design and manipulation of novel molecular materials with unprecedented control over their properties, even at the single-molecule level, to exciting applications of these special molecular sy…
Slow Dynamics of the Magnetization in One-Dimensional Coordination Polymers: Single-Chain Magnets
2009
18 pages; International audience; Slow relaxation of the magnetization (i.e., "magnet-like" behavior) in materials composed of magnetically isolated chains was observed for the first time in 2001. This type of behavior was predicted in the 1960s by Glauber in a chain of ferromagnetically coupled Ising spins (the so-called Glauber dynamics). In 2002, this new class of nanomagnets was named single-chain magnets (SCMs) by analogy to single-molecule magnets that are isolated molecules displaying related superparamagnetic properties. A long-range order occurs only at T = 0 K in any pure one-dimensional (1D) system, and thus such systems remain in their paramagnetic state at any finite temperatur…
New BDH-TTP/[MIII(C5O5)3]3– (M = Fe, Ga) Isostructural Molecular Metals
2012
Two new isostructural molecular metals-(BDH-TTP)(6)[M(III)(C(5)O(5))(3)]·CH(2)Cl(2) (BDH-TTP = 2,5-bis(1,3-dithiolan-2-ylidene)-1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene, where M = Fe (1) and Ga (2))-have been prepared and fully characterized. Compound 1 is a molecular conductor showing paramagnetic behavior, which is due to the presence of isolated [Fe(C(5)O(5))(3)](3-) complexes with high-spin S = (5)/(2) Fe(III) metal ions. The conductivity originates from the BDH-TTP organic donors arranged in a κ-type molecular packing. At 4 kbar, compound 1 behaves as a metal down to ∼100 K, showing high conductivity (∼10 S cm(-1)) at room temperature. When applying a pressure higher than 7 kbar, the metal-insulator…
