title: Observation of long-range f-f interactions between two f-electronic systems in quadruple-decker phthalocyanines.
abstract: Homo and heteronuclear quadruple-decker phthalocyanine tetramers containing Y(3+) and/or magnetically anisotropic lanthanide ions such as Tb(3+), Dy(3+), and Er(3+) have been synthesized, and their magnetic properties have been elucidated, giving clear evidence of the long-range interactions between two f-electronic centers.
