In this communication, we report the first evidence of slow-spin relaxation of a low-spin FeIII carborane complex. Iron S = 1/2 complexes showing such behaviour are particularly appealing as qubit candidates because they fulfil some of the main requirements to reach long decoherence times, such as moderate magnetic anisotropy, small spin, metal element mainly with zero-nuclear spin and furthermore, large versatility to introduce chemical modifications.
在本通讯中，我们报告了首例低自旋 FeIII 卡硼烷配合物的慢自旋弛豫的证据。表现出这种行为的 Fe S = 1/2 配合物特别吸引人，因为它们满足了达到长退相干时间的主要要求，例如中等磁各向异性、小自旋、主要为零核自旋的金属元素，并且具有很大的灵活性来引入化学修饰。
