International Collaboration in Chemistry: EPR Characterization of Molecular Magneto-Structural Correlations under Pressure

在这个由化学系无机、生物无机和有机金属化学项目资助、国际科学与工程办公室共同资助的项目中，佛罗里达州立大学的斯蒂芬·O·希尔将与英国爱丁堡大学的尤安·布雷钦合作，通过结合X射线结构数据和高频EPR(电子顺磁共振)数据来研究高压对单核和多核配合物磁性的影响。对络合物施加高压将使研究人员能够将同一分子内的结构变化与磁性联系起来。这种磁结构相关性的确定将提供对构成分子磁学研究基础的单体和多核配合物的电子性质的基本见解。私人投资促进机构还提议举办关于高压、高场磁共振技术的讲习班。

In this project funded by the Inorganic, Bioinorganic, and Organometallic Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division and cofunded by the Office of International Science and Engineering, Stephen O. Hill of Florida State University will collaborate with Euan Brechin of the University of Edinburgh, United Kingdom to study the effect of high pressure on the magnetism of mononuclear and polynuclear complexes via the combination of x-ray structural data and high frequency EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) data. The application of high pressure to complexes will allow the researchers to correlate structural changes with magnetic properties within the same molecule. The determination of such magnetostructural correlations will provide a fundamental insight into the electronic properties of monomeric and polynuclear complexes that form the basis for molecular magnetism studies. The PIs also propose to conduct workshops on high pressure, high field magnetic resonance techniques.
