Periodic Reporting for period 1 - MaSCHiP (Magneto-Structural Correlations Under High-Pressure in Molecule-Based Magnets)
Período documentado: 2021-01-18 hasta 2023-01-17
The MaSCHiP project aimed to investigate the magnetic properties of coordination compounds containing Transition Metal and Lanthanide Metal ions at the nanoscale through the use of high pressure. The problem being addressed by this project is the need for a deeper understanding of the magnetic properties of coordination compounds containing Transition Metal and Lanthanide Metal ions at the nanoscale. This is important for the development of molecule-based magnets that can be applied in future quantum technologies, such as information storage and molecular spintronics. It is important for society because it aims to contribute to the development of new technologies with potential applications in fields such as information storage and molecular spintronics. By gaining a better understanding of the magnetic properties of coordination compounds at the nanoscale and developing the ability to control and manipulate these properties, it may be possible to create more efficient and effective devices for information processing and storage. These technologies could have a significant impact on a wide range of fields, from computing to healthcare, and could lead to advances in areas such as data storage, communication, and medical imaging.
The overall objectives of the MaSCHiP project are:
1. To gain a deeper understanding of the magnetic properties of coordination compounds containing Transition Metal and Lanthanide Metal ions at the nanoscale.
2. To develop the ability to control and manipulate the magnetic properties of these compounds using high pressure techniques.
3. To extract key structure-property relationships that can be used to enhance the performance of these compounds in future quantum technologies, such as information storage and molecular spintronics.
The main project's conclusions are:
1. High-pressure techniques enable a deeper characterisation of molecular magnetic materials.
2. The use of high-pressure techniques allows the control and manipulation of the magnetic properties of these materials.

The work in this projected consisted in:
1. Synthesis of new coordination compounds with magnetic properties. This compounds can be classified as a) Single-Ion Magnets; b) Single-Molecule Magnets; c) Single-Chain Magnets; and, d) Magnetic Metal Organic Frameworks.
2. Fully characterise these new compounds at ambient conditions by using a wide range of techniques, both in solution and in the solid state. This characterisation allowed to fully understand the magnetic behaviour.
3. Characterise these compounds under high-pressure, to investigate the changes in their magnetic behaviour by applying high-pressures.
4. The results of this project were disseminated and communicated through publications in scientific journals and by attending international conferences related to the subject.
