Studies on electronic properties under multiple extreme conditions/ Exercise 1

A soft nature of molecular based materials makes the high-pressure experiments efficient in studying their physical properties. High-pressure magnetic measurements provide useful information about peculiar pressure-induced phenomena, although reliable measurements are experimentally difficult since spin density of molecular based materials are quite small. Magnetic property measurements under high-pressure is one of the frontiers in the research field of molecular based materials. We have developed the techniques for precise DC susceptibility measurements under high-pressure to study the pressure-induced phenomena in molecular-based materials.

Japanese(English accepted)

We will start by discussing what kind of experiments will be conducted for what kind of problems and designing appropriate experiments for the following research objectives.
I. Study of magnetic interactions in materials where d-electrons (e.g., transition metals) and pi-electrons (e.g., organic molecules) coexist.
II. Materials research for next-generation devices using lightweight molecules
III. Fundamental research on the principle to realize devices that transmit signals by spin currents instead of electric currents

All research progress reports, experimental plans, experimental reports, etc. will be evaluated on a 100-point scale, with 60 points or more being considered acceptable.
