U.S.-France Cooperative Research: Magnetic Properties of Monomolecular Langmuir-Blodgett Films of Organic Radicals

9910016 IannacchioneThis三年奖为美国-法国伍斯特理工学院的Germano Iannacchione和法国斯特拉斯堡材料物理和化学研究所的Jean-Louis Gallani参与了合作。 研究人员建议研究在独特的有机分子磁体中发现的磁相。 该项目扩展了目前关于创建有机自由基和有机超晶格的Langmuir-Blodgett（LB）薄膜的工作。 LB膜为创造新型二维磁体提供了特殊的机会。 伍斯特理工学院的美国团队将在1.到4.2。在斯特拉斯堡的法国团队创建的样本上的K。 量热法研究将提供有关过渡到铁相的细节。该奖项代表了美国方面向NSF和法国国家科学研究中心（CNRS）提出的联合提案。 NSF将为美国调查员提供差旅费和生活费。 CNRS将支持法国研究人员访问美国。 该合作将促进对低维磁体的理解，以及如何使用Langmuir-Blodgett沉积技术来创建具有自旋电子学特征的材料。

9910016IannacchioneThis three-year award for U.S.-France collaboration involves Germano Iannacchione of Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Jean-Louis Gallani of the Institute for Physics and Chemistry of Materials, Strasbourg, France. The investigators propose to study magnetic phases that are found in unique organic molecular magnets. The project extends current work on the creation of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of organic radicals and organic superlattices. LB films provide special opportunities for creating novel two-dimensional magnets. The U.S. team at Worcester Polytech will perform high-resolution ac calorimetry in the temperature range of 1. to 4.2. K on samples created by the French team in Strasbourg. Calorimetry studies will provide details about the transition into a ferro phase. This award represents the U.S. side of a joint proposal to the NSF and the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). NSF will cover travel funds and living expenses for the U.S. investigator. The CNRS will support the visits of the French researchers to the United States. The collaboration will advance understanding of low dimensional magnets and how to use Langmuir-Blodgett deposition technique to create materials possessing features of spin electronics.
