Characterization of high-spin transition metal compounds by means of sophisticated EPR-techniques at high microwave frequency. 01/01/2004 - 31/12/2005

Abstract

By means of high frequency (95GHz) EPR-techniques specific families of organo metallic compounds can be studied. These systems have a high groundstate spin and can behave as single molecule magnets. The key to such behaviour is the zero-field splitting of the energy levels (=splitting of the energy levels in the abscence of a magnetic field). These zero-field splittings can be precisely analyzed using high frequent EPR techniques.
