Solvato Modulation of the Magnetic Memory in Isotopically Enriched Erbium Polyoxometalate

Single-Molecule Magnet (SMM) property is by essence molecular, while commonly measured in solid crystalline state. Solvent crystallization molecules are usually neglected in the analysis and interpretation of solid-state properties. The solvation/desolvation process in the polyoxometalate(POM)-based Na₉[Er(W₅O₁₈)₂] ⋅ 35 H₂O SMM demonstrates that the dehydrated form relaxes more than 1000 times faster than the initial state, while the rehydration process allows the quasi complete recovering of the initial magnetic behaviour. This dehydration process is monitored by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffraction, and rationalized by periodic quantum chemical calculations evidencing the tremendous role of the labile water molecules in the stability of the edifice. Ab-initio calculations highlight that sodium ions localization in the structure drive the magnetic responses. Isotopic enrichment with nuclear spin free (¹⁶⁶Er, I=0) Er^III ions shows that the relaxation dynamics in the quantum regime depends on the nuclear spin.

Application of pulsed-magnetic field enhances non-viral gene delivery in primary cells from different origins

Primary cell lines are more difficult to transfect when compared to immortalized/transformed cell lines, and hence new techniques are required to enhance the transfection efficiency in these cells. We isolated and established primary cultures of synoviocytes, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, melanocytes, macrophages, lung fibroblasts, and embryonic fibroblasts. These cells differed in several properties, and hence were a good representative sample of cells that would be targeted for expression and delivery of therapeutic genes in vivo. The efficiency of gene delivery in all these cells was enhanced using polyethylenimine-coated polyMAG magnetic nanoparticles, and the rates (17–84.2%) surpassed those previously achieved using other methods, especially in cells that are difficult to transfect. The application of permanent and pulsating magnetic fields significantly enhanced the transfection efficiencies in synoviocytes, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, melanocytes and lung fibroblasts, within 5 min of exposure to these magnetic fields. This is an added advantage for future in vivo applications, where rapid gene delivery is required before systemic clearance or filtration of the gene vectors occurs.     

Synthesis and Characterization of a [Mn12O12(O2CR)16(H2O)4] Complex Bearing Paramagnetic Carboxylate Ligands. Use of a Modified Acid Replacement Synthetic Approach

Summary.  A new modified approach for the synthesis of Mn₁₂ clusters, based on the use of complex [Mn₁₂O₁₂(O₂C ^t Bu)₁₆(H₂O)₄] (2) as starting material to promote the acidic ligand replacement, is presented here. This new synthetic approach allowed us to obtain complex [Mn₁₂O₁₂(O₂CC₆H₄N(O^•) ^t Bu)₁₆(H₂O)₄] (3), whose preparation remained elusive by direct replacement of the acetate groups of Mn₁₂Ac (1). Complex 3 bearing open-shell radical units, was prepared to increase the total spin number of its ground state, and consequently, to increase T _B , with the expectation that the radical ligands may couple ferromagnetically with the Mn₁₂ core. Unfortunately, magnetic measurements of complex 3 revealed that the sixteen radical carboxylate ligands interact antiferromagnetically with the Mn₁₂ core to yield a S = 2 magnetic ground state.

Synthesis and magnetic properties of La-substituted M-type Sr hexaferrites

Single-phase M-type hexagonal ferrites Sr_1−xLa_xFe₁₂O₁₉ (0≤x≤1) were prepared by a ceramic route. The stability limits of the ferrite phases were determined with a combination of various microscopy techniques, electron-probe micro-analysis, powder X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis. SrFe₁₂O₁₉ (x=0) is stable up to 1420 °C, whereas LaFe₁₂O₁₉ (x=1) exists between 1360 and 1400 °C only. The lattice parameters of Sr_1−xLa_xFe₁₂O₁₉ exhibit a linear variation with x, i.e. a₀ slightly increases and c₀ decreases with x, leading to a decrease of the unit cell volume with x. The saturation magnetization at T=5 K decreases with increasing La concentration. Room temperature Mössbauer analysis shows that the Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ valence change occurs in the 2a sites for the whole composition range.

Reduced exchange coupling and hysteresis loops in two-phased magnetic nanosystem

The reduced exchange coupling has been incorporated in our micromagnetic calculations for the hysteresis loops of Nd₂Fe₁₄B/α-Fe and Sm₄₀Fe₆₀/Ni₈₀Fe₂₀ multilayers. Analysis shows that nucleation and pinning fields are sensitive to the value of the interface coupling constant Jⁱ when the soft layer thickness L^s is small. Hysteresis loops have been obtained for a trilayer system with a soft α-Fe sandwiched between two Nd₂Fe₁₄B layers for different values of L^s and Jⁱ. As Jⁱ decreases, nucleation field decreases while the pinning field increases. In the meantime, the squareness of the loops is deteriorated, which results in smaller energy product. For thick soft layer the coercivity mechanism transforms from pinning to nucleation as the interface coupling decreases, and vice versa. The above calculations have been extended to a Sm₄₀Fe₆₀/Ni₈₀Fe₂₀ bilayer and compared with available experimental data. The theoretical loop is consistent with the experimental one when the value of Jⁱ is taken as 10% of the bulk one, demonstrating that the interface coupling in the experiment is far away from perfect coupling.
