摘要: This paper investigates the single-molecule magnets of pure and Cr/Fe-doped Mn$_{12}$-Ac. The components of the mixed crystals are identified by AC susceptibility technique. The ground-state spin and anisotropy parameters of doped \mbox{Mn$_{12}$-Ac} are obtained: (i) \mbox{Mn$_{11}$Cr-Ac} ($S$=19/2, $D$=0.62\,K, $B$=0.0009\,K, $\De$=63\,K), and (ii) \mbox{Mn$_{11}$Fe-Ac} ($S$=21/2, $D$=0.39\,K, $B$=0.001\,K, $\De$=55\,K). The single-ion origin of the magnetic anisotropy is discussed.

The ground-state spin and anisotropy parameters of doped Mn$_{12}$-Ac are obtained: (i) Mn$_{11}$Cr-Ac ($S$=19/2, $D$=0.62 K, $B$=0.0009 K, $\varDelta$=63 K), and (ii) Mn$_{11}$Fe-Ac ($S$=21/2, $D$=0.39 K, $B$=0.001 K, $\varDelta$=55 K). The single-ion origin of the magnetic anisotropy is discussed.
