The goal of this work was to design a ferromagnetically coupled Mn(2+)Ni(2+) species. For this, we attempted to combine nitro-nitrito and end-on azido bridges which are both known to be ferromagnetic couplers. This has led us to the compound of formula Mn(N(3))(4)[Ni(en)(2)NO(2)](2) (en = ethylenediamine). The crystal structure has been solved at room temperature. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C2, with a = 12.631(14) Å, b = 15.636(2) Å, c = 13.43(2) Å, beta = 90.14(6) degrees, and Z = 4. The structure consists of two very similar but crystallographically independent neutral trinuclear units with a MnNi(2) isoceles triangular shape. The Mn and Ni atoms are doubly bridged by an end-on azido and a nitro-nitrito (with respect to Ni and Mn, respectively) group. Both the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility and the field dependence of the magnetization at 2 K have been investigated and have revealed Mn(2+)-Ni(2+) ferromagnetic interactions, which give rise to an S = (9)/(2) ground state for the triad. The quantitative interpretation of these magnetic properties has given an interaction parameter J between Mn(2+) and Ni(2+) ions equal to 1.4(1) cm(-)(1) (H = -JS(Mn)().(S(Ni1)() + S(Ni2)()). The electronic absorption spectrum has been recorded at various temperatures down to 20 K and interpreted.

In the history of magnetochemistry development, lanthanide-transition (3d-4f) heterometallic compounds have been considered an attractive candidate for magnetic refrigerants. Herein, a series of heterometallic compounds have been designed and templated by CO anions, that is, {[LnNi(L)(CO)(HO)]·HO} [Ln = Gd (. Gd2Ni) = Sm (.

Nonvolatile control of spin order or spin excitations offers a promising avenue for advancing spintronics; however, practical implementation remains challenging. In this Letter, we propose a general framework to realize electrical control of magnons in 2D magnetic insulators. We demonstrate that in bilayer ferromagnetic insulators with strong spin-layer coupling, the electric field can effectively manipulate the spin exchange interactions between the layers, enabling nonvolatile control of the corresponding magnons.

Searching for single-molecule magnets (SMM) with large effective blocking barriers, long relaxation times, and high magnetic blocking temperatures is vitally important not only for the fundamental research of magnetism at the molecular level but also for the realization of new-generation magnetic memory unit. Actinides (An) atoms possess extremely strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) due to their 5 orbitals, and their ground multiplets are largely split into several sublevels because of the strong interplay between the SOC of An atoms and the crystal field (CF) formed by ligand atoms. Compared to TM-based SMMs, more dispersed energy level widths of An-based SMMs will give a larger total zero field splitting (ZFS) and thus provide a necessary condition to derive a higher .

Spin glass (SG), in which the spins are glassy, has attracted broad attention for theoretical study and prospective application. SG states are generally related to disordered or frustrated spin systems, which are usually observed in inorganic magnets. Herein, supramolecular magnetic ionic liquid (TMTBDI[FeCl]) self-assemblies are prepared by solution self-assembly via hydrophobic and π-π stacking interactions.

The role of self-intercalation in 2D van der Waals materials is key to the understanding of many of their properties. Here we show that the magnetic ordering temperature of thin films of the 2D ferromagnet Fe_{5}GeTe_{2} is substantially increased by self-intercalated Fe that resides in the van der Waals gaps. The epitaxial films were prepared by molecular beam epitaxy and their magnetic properties explored by element-specific x-ray magnetic circular dichroism that showed ferromagnetic ordering up to 375 K.
