Abstract

Ionic liquids containing lanthanide halide anions give the opportunity to investigate magnetic behaviour in non-ordered systems. Reported herein is the synthesis and characterization of ionic liquids containing a series of lanthanide halide anions, with the resulting materials displaying unusual behaviour below 50 K. Specifically, the ionic liquid structural glass formation appears to drive magnetic behaviour due to cluster formation of the anions during rapid cooling. This system presents a possible probe to study the dynamics of glass forming materials.
