Direct observation of the magnetic anisotropy of an Fe(II) spin crossover molecular thin film

In this work, we provide clear evidence of magnetic anisotropy in the local orbital moment of a molecular thin film based on the SCO complex [Fe(H _2 B(pz) _2 ) _2 (bipy)] (pz = pyrazol−1−yl, bipy = 2,2′−bipyridine). Field dependent x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements indicate that the ma...
