7 Molecules as magnetic memory There are some properties that molecules must have if one wants to use them as magnetic memory: Existence of an hysteresis loop (energy barrier between two magnetization states) = the molecule can remember. Large interaction between the spins in the molecule (J) = the molecule acts as a single unit. Weak magnetic coupling between the molecules = every molecule behaves independently. 7

Hydrogen The magnitude of magnetic interactions between the spins of the ions is between 0 to 170K. The magnetic interactions between the molecules are negligibly small. 8
9 Single crystal of Fe8 Single array of nanomagnets The magnetization is preferentially oriented parallel to an axis called the "easy axis. Easy axis Hard axis 9
10 The molecular spin in low temperatures S=10 (a) is parallel to the easy axis. (b) is perpendicular to the easy axis. M. Ueda & S. Maegawa, J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 70 (001) This was confirmed by a polarized neutrondiffraction experiment. S 10 ( 5 ) ( 5 ) + 10 = 6 =

15 The Hamiltonian of Fe8: S=10 Hamiltonian The main part of the spin Hamiltonian: H = DS gμ H z B z S z E ( S S ) x y D anisotropic constant (~0.7 K) E rhombic parameter (~0.046 K) The energy levels are: Energy( m) = Dm g μ B H z m where m is the quantum number of the level. The tunnel splitting between the two degenerated ground states: 15 8D Δ S, S = (S)! 8 [( S 1)! ] E D S
16 Experimental realization M s =S-1 M s =S M s =-S+1 M s =-S M s =S M s =-S a) In zero field the two wells are equally populated. b) An applied magnetic field selectively populates the right well. c) After removing the field the system returns to equilibrium (thermally). 16 Thermally assisted QT pure QT

25 Why measure Fe8 with μsr? We want to measure the magnetization of a few (or one) molecules We need a local probe Moreover, there is an ongoing effort to make Fe8 films μsr is applicable to films (while most techniques are not). 5
26 μsr Muon Spin Relaxation/Rotation High energy proton Carbon atom nucleus pion muon neutrino positron sample From the ISIS website (ISIS - pulsed neutron and muon source located at the UK) 6 Positron detector The muon provides information on the magnetic environment in its vicinity. ω μ = γ B μ
27 μsr experiment setup L R The beam direction easy axis of Fe8 applied field. Temperature : ~100mK (minimize activation effects). The initial polarization of the muons is 50 relative to z. 7
28 Asymmetry μsr Detected positrons time difference between the muon arrival at the sample and its decay Corrected asymmetry: R( t) L( t) A( t) = P ( t) R( t) + L( t) 8
29 The process - three step field cycle: process 1. A strong negative field of -T that is parallel to the z axis, polarizes the Fe8 molecules.1. The field is swept to an intermediate positive value H i, at a rate of 4 mt/s different process Energy. 3. The field is swept back to +50G at 9 the same rate same measurement m > 0 m < 0.3

41 Summary The qualitative result from the Faraday force magnetometer demonstrates again the quantum nature of the Fe8 crystals. Using the msr technique, which is also applicable to films, we observe quantum tunneling of the magnetization (QTM) in the Fe8 compound. We show that Fe8 can remember for at least 1/ hour which intermediate field was visited. Using Fe8, we can distinguish between at least six processes by performing the same measurement. 41 This warrants Fe8 molecules the candidacy for a multi-bit magnetic memory.
