Abstract

Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) have attracted increasing attention for their potential applications in high-density information storage and quantum computing. There into, polynuclear 4f complexes are excellent candidates to create high performance SMMs for the advantages of significant single-ion magnetic anisotropy arising from 4f ions and manipulable magnetic exchange couplings via tunable arrangement of the metal ions, which promotes the rapid development of this area in the last decade. In this chapter we present a comprehensive review focusing on cluster-based lanthanide SMMs and their correlations between the molecular structures and magnetic behaviors and further highlight some novel strategies for enhancing SMMs.
