We investigate the experimental detection of the electromagnetic radiation
generated in the fast magnetization reversal in Mn12-acetate at low
temperatures. In our experiments we used large single crystals and assemblies
of several small single crystals of Mn12-acetate placed inside a cylindrical
stainless steel waveguide in which an InSb hot electron device was also placed
to detect the radiation. All this was set inside a SQUID magnetometer that
allowed to change the magnetic field and measure the magnetic moment and the
temperature of the sample as the InSb detected simultaneously the radiation
emitted from the molecular magnets. Our data show a sequential process in which
the fast inversion of the magnetic moment first occurs, then the radiation is
detected by the InSb device, and finally the temperature of the sample
increases during 15 ms to subsequently recover its original value in several
hundreds of milliseconds.Comment: changed conten
