Q2. What future works have the authors mentioned in the paper "Molecular single-ion magnets based on lanthanides and actinides" ?
Applications such as these are likely to play a leading role in the future development of fSIMs given their unrivalled potential for tunability and paradigms of robustness. Actinide f-SIMs have been comparatively less well studied, but are starting to gain momentum among various groups due to their unusual electronic properties and increased tendency to form covalent interactions, which may lead to more exotic behaviours than can be achieved with lanthanides.
Q3. What is the goal of the majority of studies?
Although the goal of the majority of studies was the maximisation of the energy barrier Ueff (Fig. 25), as a means to increase the magnetisation blocking temperature, greater control of electronic structure has led to the application of fSIMs in a broader range of topics within spintronics [165], and in particular within the field of quantum information processing [166] (Fig. 24).
Q4. What are the main characteristics of fSIMs?
Applications such as these are likely to play a leading role in the future development of fSIMs given their unrivalled potential for tunability and paradigms of robustness.
Q5. What are the main reasons for the growth of fSIMs?
Actinide f-SIMs have been comparatively less well studied, but are starting to gain momentum among various groups due to their unusual electronic properties and increased tendency to form covalent interactions, which may lead to more exotic behaviours than can be achieved with lanthanides.
