Direct Identification of the Minority and Majority Species in the
Single-Molecule Magnet Mn12-Acetate by Inelastic Neutron Scattering
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 129, 1526-1527 (2007)
Abstract:
A field-dependent inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiment on an
array of oriented single crystals of Mn12-acetate is reported.
The experimental results provide clear evidence that the minority
species observed in the INS spectra is the fast-relaxing species
observed in, for instance, AC-susceptibility measurements.
