In molecular spin-crossover materials, the spin-state switching is strongly coupled with
changes in the structural degrees of freedom, which play a central role in the alteration of …

OctaDist is an interactive and visual program for determination of structural distortion in
octahedral coordination complexes such as spin crossover complexes, single-ion magnets …

Light-Induced Excited Spin-State Trap** has been studied since 1982 in solution and
1984 in solid state as it offers a reversible way of photoswitching the electronic configuration …

The spin-crossover phenomenon (SCO) is a fascinating field that potentially concerns any
material containing a (d4–d7) transition metal complex finding therefore an echo in as …

We study the basic mechanisms allowing light to photoswitch at the molecular scale a spin-
crossover material from a low-to a high-spin state. Combined femtosecond x-ray absorption …

FeCo Prussian blue analogues of general formula A x Co y [Fe (CN) 6] z are responsive,
non-stoichiometric materials whose magnetic and optical properties can be reversibly …

The unprecedented bimetallic 2D coordination polymer {Fe [(Hg (SCN) 3) 2](4, 4′‐bipy) 2}
n exhibits a thermal high‐spin (HS)↔ low‐spin (LS) staircase‐like conversion characterized …

This article overviews the different light-induced spin-crossover processes that are induced
using ligand photoreaction, photothermal effects, or optical absorption of the center metallic …

Structure–function relationships relating the spin-crossover (SCO) midpoint temperature (T
1/2) in the solid state are surveyed for 43 members of the iron (II) dipyrazolylpyridine family …

Conspectus Few photoactive molecules undergo a complete transformation of physical
properties (magnetism, optical absorption, etc.) when irradiated with light. Such phenomena …
