Just out in J. Mater. Chem. C! This work shows how precise molecular engineering can control the magnetic properties of Dy2-SMMs. Great collaboration with @linpoheng-nchu.bsky.social Article 👇 pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/A... @icgmmontpellier.bsky.social @umontpellier.bsky.social @jmaterchem.rsc.org

Our latest research in Materials Today introduces a chiral Ni²⁺/Yb³⁺ molecular complex achieving room-temperature 180° polarization reversal driven by a magnetic field. This opens possibilities for molecular magnetoelectrics and spintronics! Thanks to all collaborators! 👇 bit.ly/4x9OqpJ

Just out in Crystal Growth & Design @pubs.acs.org ! 🧲 Two Dy³⁺ helicates with identical frameworks but different ligand protonation states: tuning anisotropy axes & dipolar coupling. Nice collab with @linpoheng-nchu.bsky.social @icgmmontpellier.bsky.social @umontpellier.bsky.social

Tuning Anisotropy Axis Orientation and Dipolar Coupling in Triple-Stranded Dinuclear Dy3+ Helicates Via Ligand Protonation State

We report the synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic properties of two novel triple-stranded Dy3+ helicates, [Dy2(H3TB)3]Br3 (1) and [Dy2(H2TB)2(H3TB)](NO3) (2), which share an identical framewor...

'Not everything can be crystallised, and the structure you get if you do produce diffractable crystals is almost as much of a mystery' – Chemistry World's Neil Withers on a dark art.

Polymorphs matter – especially when they might disappear

Disappearing polymorphs offer a fascinating example of the dark arts of crystallisation

🚨 PhD Alert! 🚨 We are hiring two PhD students in coordination chemistry at the Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier. 📌 Topics: 1️⃣ Magneto-Optics in Ln complexes 2️⃣ Molecular Ferroelectrics 📍 Location: Montpellier, France 🗓 Start: Oct 2025 💬 Questions? Email or DM me! RT greatly appreaciated!

A fantastic way to end the year! Our latest work with LNCMI Grenoble, "Coexistence of room temperature magneto-chiral dichroism and magneto-electric coupling in a chiral nanomagnet", is now published in Nanoscale. 🧲 Read more: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Coexistence of room temperature magneto-chiral dichroism and magneto-electric coupling in a chiral nanomagnet

We report herein on the magneto-chiral dichroism (MChD), investigated through near infrared light absorption, of a chiral nanomagnet showing room temperature magneto-electric coupling. The MChD signal...
