Abstract
Magnetic molecules physisorbed into low-dimensional nanostructures of microporous materials such as graphite and metal-organic frameworks have been verified to exhibit an unusual magnetic behavior. We demonstrate that the selective injection of both magnetic and nonmagnetic guest molecules into the water-ice cages of clathrate hydrates to form a 3D superstructure with tetrahedral and diamond-like sublattices can modify the inherent magnetism.
