Nanomagnets: Magnetic Properties and Inelastic Neutron Scattering Studies

In this thesis, small quantum spin systems, known as nano-magnets or molecular magnets, have been investigated. This is an area of great interest in the development of nanotechnology and quantum computers. Previous research on molecular magnets has concentrated on large, complex materials, which hav...
