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, sep ...

The project is developed to generate fundamental knowledge on the decomposition mechanisms of metalorganic (MO) precursors that are used for the preparation of coatings composed of complex metallic alloys (CMA) by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition (M OCVD). Such coatings present an extraordinary combination of properties that are mutually excluding in conventional materials.Unfortunately, th ...
