Abstract:

We report temperature dependent millimetre-wave spectroscopic experiments on single crystals of the organic molecular magnet 2-benzimidazolyl nitronyl nitroxide, in the range 1.4-100 K. This organic radical shows quasi one-dimensional (1-d) ferromagnetic intermolecular interactions with the intrachain exchange coupling constant J/k(B) = +22 K and interchain coupling constant J'/k(B) = 0.24 K. The linewidth of the electron spin resonance at low temperatures was seen to be considerably broadened as compared to that at higher temperatures. This is consistent with the low dimensional behaviour of the linewidth predicted theoretically. We also see a shift in resonance field at low temperatures. We also present the results of angular dependence experiments carried out at temperatures of 1.4 and 50 K, and frequency dependence experiments at 1.4 and 50 K. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
