Abstract | 1 and indicate the presence of nanoscale magnetic centres. Quantum tunnelling, in the form of temperature-independent relaxation and coercivity, deviation from Arrhenius behaviour and blocking of the relaxation, dominates the magnetic properties up to 10 K. The simple crystal structure, the availability of large single crystals and the ability to vary the Fe concentration make Li-2(Li1-xFex) N an ideal model system to study macroscopic quantum effects at elevated temperatures and also a basis for novel functional magnetic materials. |
