Research Interests

Current magnetic materials are made using a 'top-down' approach. However, these magnetic grains cannot continue to decrease in size indefinitely and new magnetic materials must be developed. If the bit size is to decrease further towards a few nanometres, we move into the realm of magnetic molecules and the possibility of information storage and processing at the molecular level.

These molecular systems, which display the ability to block the magnetization via an anisotropy barrier, are known as single-molecule magnets. The interest in these fascinating molecules is because they are among the best candidates for molecular systems that could revolutionise electron spin-based technologies.

We have a long-standing interest in the synthesis (including solvothermal or microwave-assisted) and characterisation (structural, magnetic and optical) of these molecules. Over the years, research in the group has evolved, covering many different projects on: high-nuclearity complexes (3d and 3d-4f); single-molecule magnets; using high pressure to explore structure-property relationships; using polymetallic molecular complexes as precursors in the synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles; magnetic refrigeration and single-ion magnets (3d and 4f). Our current focus is on controlling axiality in lanthanide single-ion magnets and on engineering spin clock transitions.
