Direct observation of electric field-induced magnetism in a molecular magnet

Abstract We report the direct observation of an electrically-induced magnetic susceptibility in the molecular nano- magnet [Fe3O(O2CPh)6(py)3]ClO4 ·py, an Fe3 trimer. This magnetoelectric effect results from the breaking of spatial inversion symmetry due to the spin configurations of the antiferroma...
