We present magnetization measurements on the single molecule magnet Mn6, revealing various tunnel transitions inconsistent with a giant-spin description. We propose a dimeric model of the molecule with two coupled spins S=6, which involves crystal-field anisotropy, symmetric Heisenberg exchange interaction, and antisymmetric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange interaction. We show that this simplified model of the molecule explains the experimentally observed tunnel transitions and that the antisymmetric exchange interaction between the spins gives rise to tunneling processes between spin states belonging to different spin multiplets.

We study magnon-magnon interactions and their effects in a spiral magnet induced by combination of an antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction and a Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction. We show that the main effect of magnon-magnon interactions on low-e
nergy magnons is to renormalize the coefficient of energy dispersion. This could explain why some experiments are consistent with the noninteracting theory. We also show that although the magnon-magnon interactions induce the pair amplitude for low-energy magnons, its effect on the excitation energy is negligible. This suggests that for magnons the finite pair amplitude does not necessarily accompany the pair condensation.
Ramsey et al. [Nature Phys. 4, 277-281 (2008)] report the observation of quantum interference associated with tunnelling trajectories between states of different total spin length in a dimeric molecular nanomagnet. They argue that the interference is
a consequence of the unique characteristics of a molecular Mn12 wheel, which behaves as a molecular dimer with weak ferromagnetic exchange coupling. We show here that the data published by Ramsey et al. are not consistent and unfortunately mostly wrong. We show further that the Landau-Zener (LZ) formula, which links the tunnel probability with the tunnel splitting, can only be applied in a well-defined experimental region, which lays outside the region accessed by Ramsey and colleagues. Only a lower-limit estimate of the tunnel splitting can be obtained, showing that the observed transition cannot be explained with the dimer model. We also present other shortcomings of the paper questioning the dimer model, and that the alignment of the magnetic field is crucial for observing quantum interference.
We present low temperature magnetometry measurements on a new Mn3 single-molecule magnet (SMM) in which the quantum tunneling of magnetization (QTM) displays clear evidence for quantum mechanical selection rules. A QTM resonance appearing only at ele
vated temperatures demonstrates tunneling between excited states with spin projections differing by a multiple of three: this is dictated by the C3 symmetry of the molecule, which forbids pure tunneling from the lowest metastable state. Resonances forbidden by the molecular symmetry are explained by correctly orienting the Jahn-Teller axes of the individual manganese ions, and by including transverse dipolar fields. These factors are likely to be important for QTM in all SMMs.
A Mn30 molecular cluster is established to be the largest single-molecule magnet (SMM) discovered to date. Magnetization versus field measurements show coercive fields of about 0.5 T at low temperatures. Magnetization decay experiments reveal an Arrh
enius behavior and temperature-independent relaxation below 0.2 K diagnostic of quantum tunneling of magnetization through the anisotropy barrier.The quantum hole digging method is used to establish resonant quantum tunneling. These results demonstrate that large molecular nanomagnets,having a volume of 15 nm^3, with dimensions approaching the mesoscale can still exhibit the quantum physics of the microscale.
A Mn4 single-molecule magnet (SMM) is used to show that quantum tunneling of magnetization (QTM) is not suppressed by moderate three dimensional exchange coupling between molecules. Instead, it leads to an exchange bias of the quantum resonances whic
h allows precise measurements of the effective exchange coupling that is mainly due to weak intermolecular hydrogen bounds. The magnetization versus applied field was recorded on single crystals of [Mn4]2 using an array of micro-SQUIDs. The step fine structure was studied via minor hysteresis loops.
