DESCRIPTION:Molecular nanomagnets are exchange-coupled clusters in which m
 agnetic moments are predominantly localized on metal ions. The possibility
  of chemical engineering of single-ion magnetic anisotropies and inter-ion
  couplings has lead to a huge variety of such systems. Many species exhibi
 t long magnetization relaxation times which can extend up to days at low t
 emperatures\, rendering these systems interesting for potential applicatio
 ns e.g. as quantum bits and in molecular spintronics. In this talk I will 
 present recent results on a magnetic ring\, a mixed 3d-4f trinuclear speci
 es and on the magnetic endofullerene DySc2N@C80.
