Abstract
A magnetic proximity effect has been observed in core–shell structure of molecular magnet, Mn1.5[Cr(CN)6]·mH2O@Ni1.5[Cr(CN)6]·nH2O, synthesized using a ferrimagnetic core of Mn1.5[Cr(CN)6]·7.5H2O surrounded by a ferromagnetic shell of Ni1.5[Cr(CN)6]·7.5H2O. The values of Curie temperature (TC) are found to be of ∼65 and ∼60 K for the bare–core and bare–shell compounds, respectively. However, an enhanced TC (∼70 K) has been observed for the core–shell structure. The proximity effect (due to presence of interface exchange coupling) between core and shell is responsible for the observed enhancement of TC. A neutron depolarization study also confirms finite depolarization below ∼70 K.
