VoLuRad Single-molecule magnets based on the orbitally-degenerate spin centers and stable organic radicals complexes

Coordinator: NIKOLAEV INSTITUTE OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY THE SIBERIAN BRANCH OF THE RUSSIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES (RU)

The finding some polynuclear complexes can behave like magnets on the molecular level attracted much attention, opening perspectives for their applications in processing devices or for high density information storage carriers. To manifest single-molecule magnet (SMM) behaviour a polynuclear complex should have a high-spin ground-state and strong negative anisotropy (D). The energy barrier, U, separating two spin orientations (up-down) is proportional to the product of │D│ and square of spin, S. Therefore the larger the D and S values are the higher the U barriers should be and the longer the…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €15k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 1 year from 2014-09-01 to 2015-08-31.
