Key Points

Enhancing quantum tunnelling of magnetisation leads to improved slow magnetic relaxation.
Transverse crystal field parameters introduced by symmetry distortions impact relaxation rates effectively.
Assessment of local symmetry distortions highlights their crucial role in determining magnetic properties.
Modulating anion selection may open avenues for novel single-molecule magnets design and functionality.

Implication

This analysis demonstrates effects of anion selection on magnetic relaxation in Yb(III) magnets, suggesting new pathways for manipulating quantum tunnelling.

Abstract

Distortions in the local symmetry around Ln(III) ions in SMMs significantly impacts slow magnetic relaxation by introducing transverse crystal field parameters that enhance quantum tunnelling of the magnetisation (QTM). Minimising...
