Elucidation of slow magnetic relaxation in a ferromagnetic 1D dysprosium chain through magnetic dilution.
A novel ferromagnetic 1D dysprosium chain was synthesized. It exhibits slow magnetic relaxation, originating from the single-ion behaviour of Dy(3+) as indicated by dc and ac magnetic data of both diluted and un-diluted samples.
