Abstract
High-spin molecules have been proposed as candidates for the storage of information at the molecular level. The electronic structure of two complex magnetic molecular systems, Mn10 and Mn19, is characterized by means of a computational study based on density functional theory. All the exchange interactions in the recently reported Mn19 complex with the highest known spin value of 83/2, and in its highly symmetric Mn10 parent compound, are ferromagnetic. In these complexes, there are two kinds of ferromagnetic coupling: the first one corresponds to MnII−MnIII interactions through a double μ2-alkoxo-μ4-oxo bridge where the high coordination number of the MnII cations results in long MnII−O bond distances, while the second one involves MnIII−MnIII interactions through μ2-alkoxo-μ3-η1:η1:η1 azido bridging ligands with long MnIII−N distances due to a Jahn−Teller effect.

A [Mn18Dy] SMM resulting from the targeted replacement of the central MnII in the S = 83/2 [Mn19]-aggregate with DyIII

TL;DR: Anisotropy can be introduced into the [Mn(19)]-aggregate, which currently has the highest known spin ground state of S = 83/2, by the targeted replacement of the central Mn(II) cation with Dy(III) leading to a [Mm(18)Dy] complex with the same core topology showing slow relaxation of the magnetisation.

Theoretical study of exchange coupling in 3d-Gd complexes: large magnetocaloric effect systems.

TL;DR: The analysis of the atomic and orbital spin populations reveals that the presence of spin density in the Gd 5d orbital is mainly due to a spin polarization effect, while a delocalization mechanism from the 3d orbitals of the transition metal can be ruled out.

Density functional studies on dinuclear {Ni(II)Gd(III)} and trinuclear {Ni(II)Gd(III)Ni(II)} complexes: magnetic exchange and magneto-structural maps.

TL;DR: Extensive magneto-structural correlations have been developed for the trinuclear complexes and the observed J trend for thetrinuclear complex is similar to that of the dinuclear {Ni-Gd} complex.

Generalized Gradient Approximation Made Simple

TL;DR: A simple derivation of a simple GGA is presented, in which all parameters (other than those in LSD) are fundamental constants, and only general features of the detailed construction underlying the Perdew-Wang 1991 (PW91) GGA are invoked.

Density‐functional thermochemistry. III. The role of exact exchange

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical exchange correlation functional with local spin density, gradient, and exact exchange terms was proposed. But this functional performed significantly better than previous functionals with gradient corrections only, and fits experimental atomization energies with an impressively small average absolute deviation of 2.4 kcal/mol.

Efficient pseudopotentials for plane-wave calculations

TL;DR: It is found that these pseudopotentials are extremely efficient for the cases where the plane-wave expansion has a slow convergence, in particular, for systems containing first-row elements, transition metals, and rare-earth elements.
