Abstract
Low-temperature heat capacity analyses for an NO-encapsulated fullerene derivative revealed (i) low-energy motion and (ii) strong magnetic anisotropy of the NO molecule due to its orbital angular momentum. The low-energy motion was attributed to reorientational motions of the NO molecules, in which only a small number (n ∼ 0.04) of NO molecules were found to participate. The NO molecules were confirmed to be paramagnetic even at 1 K. Ab-initio calculation indicated that the magnetic properties of the NO unit strongly depended on its surroundings, allowing the conformation of the fullerene cage to be estimated.
