Abstract:
We report a low temperature measurement technique and the magnetization data of a quantum molecular spin, by implementing an on-chip SQUID technique. This technique enables SQUID magnetometry in high magnetic fields, up to 7 T. The main challenges and the calibration process are detailed. The measurement protocol is used to observe quantum tunneling jumps of the S = 10 molecular magnet, Mn(12)-tBuAc. The effect of a transverse field on the tunneling splitting for this molecular system is addressed as well.

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
