Abstract
Magnetic properties of endohedral metallofullerenes with nitrideclusters DySc2N and Dy2ScN and different carbon cages are studiedby SQUID magnetometry. All molecules behave as single moleculemagnets (SMMs) and exhibit magnetic hysteresis. It is found thatthe blocking temperature of magnetization and relaxation timesstrongly depend on the fullerene cage, with the C80-Ihisomeroffering the best SMM properties.
