摘要
The proton nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T-1 has been measured as a function of temperature and magnetic field (up to 15 T) in the molecular magnetic ring Fe-10(OCH3)(20)(O2CCH2Cl)(10) (Fe10). Striking enhancement of 1/T-1 is observed around magnetic field values corresponding to a crossing between the ground state and the excited states of the molecule. We propose that this is due to a cross-relaxation effect between the nuclear Zeeman reservoir and the reservoir of the Zeeman levels of the molecule. This effect provides a powerful tool to investigate quantum dynamical phenomena at level crossing.
