Bulk and submonolayer studies of novel single-ion molecular magnets — •Jan Dreiser — Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Institute of Condensed Matter Physics, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland — Swiss Light Source, Paul Scherrer Institut, 5232 Villigen PSI, Switzerland

Single-ion magnets (SIMs) [1,2] contain a single transition-metal or rare-earth ion embedded in an organic ligand. In contrast to many other mononuclear molecular magnets, SIMs exhibit long magnetization relaxation times at low temperatures ranging from milliseconds to more than hours. In order to exploit their properties in possible applications they should be organized and addressable one-by-one [3]. A promising path to achieve this goal is the deposition of submonolayers of SIMs on to surfaces.

In this talk I will report on our recent studies of the Er(trensal) SIM [2] in which the Er(III) ion is seven-fold coordinated to the very robust tripodal ligand. In addition to the investigations of the bulk phase I will present first results obtained on (sub)monolayer deposits on metallic surfaces using X-ray magnetic circular dichroism and scanning tunneling microscopy.
