We demonstrate numerically that for the strongly anisotropic homometallic S=2 canted single-chain magnet described by the quantum antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model the correlation energy and exchange coupling constant can be directly estimated from the in-field-magnetization profile found along the properly selected crystallographic direction. In the parameter space defined by the spherical angles (phi, theta) determining the axes orientation, four regions are identified with different sequences of the characteristic field-dependent magnetization profiles representing the antiferromagnetic, metamagnetic and weak ferromagnetic type behavior. These sequences provide a criterion for the applicability of the anisotropic quantum Heisenberg model to a given experimental system. Our analysis shows that the correlation energy decreases linearly with field and vanishes for a given value H_{cr} which defines a special coordinates in the metamagnetic profile relevant for the zero-field correlation energy and magnetic coupling. For the single-chain magnet formed by the strongly anisotropic manganese(III) acetate meso-tetraphenylporphyrin complexes coupled to the phenylphosphinate ligands, the experimental metamagnetic-type magnetization curve in the c direction yields an accurate estimate of the values of correlation energy Delta_{xi}/k_B = 7.93 K and exchange coupling J/k_B=1.20 K.

Single-chain magnets are molecular spin chains displaying slow relaxation of the magnetisation on a macroscopic time scale. To this similarity with single-molecule magnets they own their name. In this chapter the distinctive features of single-chain magnets as opposed to their precursors will be pinpointed. In particular, we will show how their behaviour is dictated by the physics of thermally-excited domain walls. The basic concepts needed to understand and model single-chain magnets will also be reviewed.
Microwave radiation applied to single-molecule magnets can induce large magnetization changes when the radiation is resonant with transitions between spin levels. These changes are interpreted as due to resonant heating of the sample by the microwave s. Pulsed-radiation studies show that the magnetization continues to decrease after the radiation has been turned off with a rate that is consistent with the spins characteristic relaxation rate. The measured rate increases with pulse duration and microwave power, indicating that greater absorbed radiation energy results in a higher sample temperature. We also performed numerical simulations that qualitatively reproduce many of the experimental results. Our results indicate that experiments aimed at measuring the magnetization dynamics between two levels resonant with the radiation must be done much faster than the >20-microsecond time scales probed in these experiments.
Single-molecule magnets facilitate the study of quantum tunneling of magnetization at the mesoscopic level. The spin-parity effect is among the fundamental predictions that have yet to be clearly observed. It is predicted that quantum tunneling is su ppressed at zero transverse field if the total spin of the magnetic system is half-integer (Kramers degeneracy) but is allowed in integer spin systems. The Landau-Zener method is used to measure the tunnel splitting as a function of transverse field. Spin-parity dependent tunneling is established by comparing the transverse field dependence of the tunnel splitting of integer and half-integer spin systems.
The static and dynamic properties of the single-chain molecular magnet [Co(hfac)$_2$NITPhOMe] are investigated in the framework of the Ising model with Glauber dynamics, in order to take into account both the effect of an applied magnetic field and a finite size of the chains. For static fields of moderate intensity and short chain lengths, the approximation of a mono-exponential decay of the magnetization fluctuations is found to be valid at low temperatures; for strong fields and long chains, a multi-exponential decay should rather be assumed. The effect of an oscillating magnetic field, with intensity much smaller than that of the static one, is included in the theory in order to obtain the dynamic susceptibility $chi(omega)$. We find that, for an open chain with $N$ spins, $chi(omega)$ can be written as a weighted sum of $N$ frequency contributions, with a sum rule relating the frequency weights to the static susceptibility of the chain. Very good agreement is found between the theoretical dynamic susceptibility and the ac susceptibility measured in moderate static fields ($H_{rm dc}le 2$ kOe), where the approximation of a single dominating frequency turns out to be valid. For static fields in this range, new data for the relaxation time, $tau$ versus $H_{rm dc}$, of the magnetization of CoPhOMe at low temperature are also well reproduced by theory, provided that finite-size effects are included.

A model for single-domain uniaxial ferromagnetic particles with high anisotropy, the Ising model, is studied. Recent experimental observations have been made of the probability that the magnetization has not switched. Here an approach is described in which it is emphasized that a ferromagnetic particle in an unfavorable field is in fact a metastable system, and the switching is accomplished through the nucleation and subsequent growth of localized droplets. Nucleation theory is applied to finite systems to determine the coercivity as a function of particle size and to calculate the probability of not switching. Both of these quantities are modified by different boundary conditions, magnetostatic interactions, and quenched disorder.
