Far-infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy Measurements of Mn12-acetate.
Abstract
The transmission spectra of both powder samples and assemblies of single crystals of Mn_12-acetate were measured in the far infrared region (2.0 - 20 cm-1) using a Fourier transform technique. The energies of the observed aborption lines agree with those obtained by Mukhin et al. [1] using the backwards wave oscillator technique. The temperature dependence of the aborption lines, as well as the presence of additional absorption lines, will be discussed. [1] A. A. Mukhin, V. D. Travkin, A. K. Zvesdin, A. Caneschi, D.
