Films of the molecular nanomagnet Mn12ac with thicknesses spanning the nm to mm range have been deposited using a customised vacuum spray deposition technique. The films have been characterized by AFM, XPS, magnetic and magneto-optical measurements, indicating that the deposition procedure does not damage the Mn12ac molecules. As a result, the...

A tetrairon(III) single-molecule magnet is deposited using a thermal evaporation technique in high vacuum. The chemical integrity is demonstrated by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry on a film deposited on Al foil, while superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry and alternating current susceptometry of a film...
