Abstract
An excellent molecule-based cryogenic magnetic refrigerant, gadolinium acetate tetrahydrate, is here used to decorate selected portions of silicon substrate. By quantitative magnetic force microscopy for variable applied magnetic field near liquid-helium temperature, we demonstrate that the molecules hold intact their magnetic properties, and therefore their cooling functionality, after their deposition. Our result represents a step forward towards the realization of a molecule-based microrefrigerating device for very low temperatures.
