High-spin molecules with magnetic anisotropy toward single-molecule magnets

High-spin molecules with easy-axis magnetic anisotropy show slow magnetic relaxation of spin-flipping along the axis of magnetic anisotropy and are called single-molecule magnets (SMMs). SMMs behave as molecular-size permanent magnets at low temperature and magnetic relaxation occurs by quantum tunneling processes; such molecules are promising candidates for use in quantum devices. We first discuss intramolecular ferromagnetic interactions for preparing high-spin molecules. Second, we determine the magnetic anisotropy for single metal ions with d(n) configurations and discuss how molecular anisotropy arises from single-ion anisotropy of the assembled component metal ions.     

Single-molecule studies on DNA and RNA.

DNA and RNA are the most individual molecules known. Therefore, single-molecule experiments with these nucleic acids are particularly useful. This review reports on recent experiments with single DNA and RNA molecules. First, techniques for their preparation and handling are summarised including the use of AFM nanotips and optical or magnetic tweezers. As important detection techniques, conventional and near-field microscopy as well as fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) are touched on briefly. The use of single-molecule techniques currently includes force measurements in stretched nucleic acids and in their complexes with binding partners, particularly proteins, and the analysis of DNA by restriction mapping, fragment sizing and single-molecule hybridisation. Also, the reactions of RNA polymerases and enzymes involved in DNA replication and repair are dealt with in some detail, followed by a discussion of the transport of individual nucleic acid molecules during the readout and use of genetic information and during the infection of cells by viruses. The final sections show how the enormous addressability in nucleic acid molecules can be exploited to construct a single-molecule field-effect transistor and a walking single-molecule robot, and how individual DNA molecules can be used to assemble a single-molecule DNA computer.     

Angular‐Resolved Magnetometry Beyond Triclinic Crystals Part II: Torque Magnetometry of Cp*ErCOT Single‐Molecule Magnets

The experimental investigation of the molecular magnetic anisotropy in crystals in which the magnetic centers are symmetry related, but do not have a parallel orientation has been approached by using torque magnetometry. A single crystal of the orthorhombic organometallic Cp*ErCOT [Cp*=pentamethylcyclopentadiene anion (C₅Me₅^?); COT=cyclooctatetraenedianion (C₈H₈^2?)] single‐molecule magnet, characterized by the presence of two nonparallel families of molecules in the crystal, has been investigated above its blocking temperature. The results confirm an Ising‐type anisotropy with the easy direction pointing along the pseudosymmetry axis of the complex, as previously suggested by out‐of‐equilibrium angular‐resolved magnetometry. The use of torque magnetometry, not requiring the presence of magnetic hysteresis, proves to be even more powerful for these purposes than standard single‐crystal magnetometry. Furthermore, exploiting the sensitivity and versatility of this technique, magnetic anisotropy has been investigated up to 150 K, providing additional information on the crystal‐field splitting of the ground J multiplet of the Er^III ion.     

A Horizontal Magnetic Tweezers for Studying Single DNA Molecules and DNA-Binding Proteins

We report data from single molecule studies on the interaction between single DNA molecules and core histones using custom-designed horizontal magnetic tweezers. The DNA-core histone complexes were formed using λ-DNA tethers, core histones, and NAP1 and were exposed to forces ranging from ~2 pN to ~74 pN. During the assembly events, we observed the length of the DNA decrease in approximate integer multiples of ~50 nm, suggesting the binding of the histone octamers to the DNA tether. During the mechanically induced disassembly events, we observed disruption lengths in approximate integer multiples of ~50 nm, suggesting the unbinding of one or more octamers from the DNA tether. We also observed histone octamer unbinding events at forces as low as ~2 pN. Our horizontal magnetic tweezers yielded high-resolution, low-noise data on force-mediated DNA-core histone assembly and disassembly processes.     

Single molecule electro-catalysis of non-fluorescent molecule

Single molecule catalysis is very powerful in revealing catalytic mechanism at the single molecule level. But fluorescentmolecule is always necessary to take part into the catalysis directly in previous research. In order to study the single molecule electro-catalysis of non-fluorescentmolecule (SMECNFM) on nanocatalyst, we couple the SMECNFM with a single molecule fluorescence reaction. A certain number of fluorescent molecules will be generated and detected when the SMECNFM happens. Through this method, we can detect the electro-oxidation reaction of one HCOONamolecule. The stability of Pt nanocatalyst supported on active carbon is studied at the singlemolecule level by this method. This paper also provides a general way to make ultra-sensitive sensor, and to study the SMECNFM for the molecules, such as formic acid, hydrogen, oxygen, etc., on single nanoparticle.     

Reorientation and translation of individual dye molecules in a polymer matrix

The orientational and translational motion of individual dye molecules embedded in a polymer matrix is studied in the temperature regime above the glass transition. The rotational diffusion close to the glass transition is heterogeneous on the single molecule level and few sudden changes in the reorientational speed of single molecules are found. The exchange between these reorientational speeds is found to be one order of magnitude slower than the reorientational time constant of the molecules. Translational motion can be clearly identified at about 1.2 T_g. However, the translational diffusion shows no signs of heterogeneity on the timescale of our experiments, from which we conclude, that the timescale of the exchange process between microenvironments has become too fast or that no heterogeneity exists at the temperatures above 1.2 T_g.

Spectral imaging of single molecules by transmission grating-based epi-fluorescence microscopy

A spectral imaging method of single protein molecules labeled with a single fluorophore is presented. The method is based on a transmission grating and a routine fluorescence microscope. The bovine serum alubmin (BSA) and antiBSA molecules labeled with Alexa Fluor 488 and Alexa Fluor 594, respectively, are used as the model proteins. The fluorescence of single molecules is dispersed into zeroth-order spectrum and first-order spectrum by the transmission grating. Results show that the fluorescence emission spectrum of single molecule converted from the first-order spectral imaging is in good agreement with the bulk fluorescence spectrum. The spectral resolution of 2.4 nm/pixel is obtained, which is sufficient for identifying the molecular species in a multicomponent system.

Quantum simulations of toroidal electric ring currents and magnetic fields in linear molecules induced by circularly polarized laser pulses

Circularly polarized laser pulses may excite state selective unidirectional toroidal electric ring currents around the axis of oriented linear molecules. These in turn induce state selective magnetic fields. Quantum simulations for AlCl show that these effects are about one or even more than three orders of magnitudes larger than those which may be prepared in oriented planar molecules such as Mg-porphyrin, by means of either circularly polarized laser pulses, or by traditional magnetic fields, respectively.
