The enhancement of the spin-lattice relaxation rate for nuclear spins in a ligand bound to a paramagnetic metal ion [known as the paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE)] arises primarily through the dipole-dipole (DD) interaction between the nuclear spi ...
A novel ligand, H12L, based on a trimethylbenzene core bearing three methylenediethylenetriamine-N,N,N,N- tetraacetate moieties (–CH2DTTA4–) for Gd3+ chelation has been synthesized, and its trinuclear Gd3+ complex [Gd3L(H2O) 6]3– investigated with respect ...
Electronic and magnetic properties of quasi-one dimensional ormore widely low-dimensional systems aswell as their related correlated electron phenomena have been at the very frontier of condensed matter physics for quite some time. The reduced dimensionali ...
Hyperfine interactions, magnetic interactions between the spins of electrons and nuclei, in graphene and related carbon nanostructures are studied. By using a combination of accurate first principles calculations on graphene fragments and statistical analy ...
We report on the temperature stability of N@C-60 peapods using electron spin resonance. The atomic nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the peapod than in the crystalline form. We also report on the synthesis of novel magnetic fullerene peapod, a ful ...
We present high resolution (Delta E=120 meV) resonant inelastic x-ray scattering data measured at the Ni L-3 edge (2p(3/2)-> 3d) on the paradigmatic antiferromagnetic oxide NiO. Spectra reveal clear signatures of magnetic excitations at similar to 95 and s ...
The electronic structure of isolated bis(phthalocyaninato) terbium(ill) molecules, a novel single-molecular-magnet (SMM), supported on the Cu(111) surface has been characterized by density functional theory and scanning tunneling spectroscopy. These studie ...
Magnetic diagnostics are essential for the operation and understanding of a magnetic fusion device. Magnetic data are used in real time to measure and control the current, shape, and position of the discharge; the thermal energy of the plasma; the confinin ...
In the Kondo effect, a localized magnetic moment is screened by forming a correlated electron system with the surrounding conduction electrons of a non-magnetic host1. Spin S D 1=2 Kondo systems have been investigated extensively in theory and experiments, ...
We demonstrate theoretically that it is possible to manipulate electron or hole spins all optically in semiconducting carbon nanotubes. The scheme that we propose is based on the spin-orbit interaction that was recently measured experimentally; we show tha ...
