Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

In this exercise students will review a number of fundamental concepts including molecular geometry, electron configurations, magnetism, metal-ligand interactions, and material science. Students will use molecular modelling software to build, visualize and study a cutting edge material (single molecule magnet).

Keywords:

Molecular geometry, magnetism, molecular modeling, molecular magnets, nanomaterials.
