The April Crystal Growth & Design magazine highlights on its cover the publication of a study by the CEDENNA Nanostructure Chemistry group team that analyzes the magnetostructural properties of two new coordination polymers with zigzag topology, and in which the researchers Carlos participated. Cruz, Walter Cañón, Verónica Paredes-García and Diego Venegas Yazigi.
The frontal view of the chains resembles an Andean condor with its wings spread and standing on the key to its dimensionality, the stone of the asymmetric pyridine-triazole linkage, and is a work that arises from the interaction of the research groups of Molecular Magnetism and Molecular Materials (LM4-USACH) and Laboratory of Molecular Magnetism and Polymetallic Compounds (LM2-CP UNAB).
Dr. Diego Venegas, Principal Investigator of the group, explained that the complete description of the electronic structure was carried out experimentally and theoretically, finding weak antiferromagnetic interactions that operate within the chains and local magnetic anisotropy and was developed by collaborations.
