Chiral effects on magnetic properties for chiral and racemic W-V-Cu-II Prussian blue analogues
The chiral and racemic 2-D antiferromagnets based on a cyano-bridged W-V-Cu-II compound are constructed. Both compounds are similar crystal structure, but some differences in magnetic proper-ties appear owing to the existence of the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya (DM) interactions,(l) that is generated by crystal chirality.
