Article: New physical chemistry study results from University of Tokyo described.

According to recent research from Komaba, Japan, "We report the first observation of molecular magneto-optical effects due to a pi-conjugated system with local-field-induced magnetic hysteresis in the visible region at room temperature. Thin films were prepared on a ferromagnetic substrate (Ni and SrO center dot 6Fe(2)O(3)) Using ditrihexylsiloxy(tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanato)silicon (SiPc(OTHS)(2)) since its surrounding substituents would prevent both aggregation and direct interaction with the ferromagnetic substrates."

"The magneto-optical effects of the diamagnetic SiPc(OTHS)2 on the Ni and SrO center dot 6Fe(2)O(3) substrates show the magnetic field ...
