Susceptible electron spin adhering to an yttrium cluster inside an azafullerene C79N†
Abstract
Highly impressionable electron spin was found in endohedral azafullerene Y2@C79N at low temperature or upon exohedral chemical modification. These external stimulations can be employed to manipulate the spin-active Y2@C79N and can further be used in quantum processes for promising information-carrying spin systems and molecular devices.
