Description

This title is the first book to comprehensively address both the experimental and theoretical aspects of this field of research. A leader in the field introduces the basic concepts concerning magnetization and magnetic susceptibility, establishes the fundamental equations of molecular magnetism, and examines molecules containing a unique magnetic center, including the high-spin low-spin transition compounds. The book highlights polymetallic species, reviews the phenomenon of interaction between spin carriers from a theoretical point of view, and includes numerous examples throughout to illustrate the topics discussed.

Description

This is a comprehensive book about molecular magnetism; it provides state of the art information about the field. Molecular magnetism deals with the magnetic properties of isolated molecules and assemblies of molecules. Molecular magnetism involves synthetic chemistry and theoretical chemistry, and is related both to molecular and to solid state physics. Molecular magnetism plays a role in the emerging field of molecular electronics, for instance the use of molecular systems in electronic circuits and devices. This book is aimed at readers who are not yet acquainted with molecular magnetism but who possess a good background knowledge, particularly in symmetry, ligand field theory and molecular orbital theory. The book also supposes that the reader is rather familiar with the operators and matrix notations used in quantum mechanics.
