The development of molecular materials whose physical properties can be controlled by
external stimuli—such as light, electric field, temperature, and pressure—has recently …

Recently we assisted a strong renewed interest in the fascinating field of molecular spin
crossover complexes by (1) the emergence of nanosized spin crossover materials through …

The literature has shown numerous contributions on the synthesis and physicochemical
properties of persistent organic radicals but there are a lesser number of reports about their …

The defining characteristic of a valence tautomeric (VT) transition in a metal complex with a
redox-active organic ligand is a stimulated intramolecular electron transfer between metal …

Modifiers are commonly used in natural, biological, and synthetic crystallization to tailor the
growth of diverse materials. Here, we identify tautomers as a new class of modifiers where …

The distinct synergetic characteristics between each component in inorganic–organic
hybrids offer various possibilities to obtain new “smart”, high performing materials. Growing …

The ability of molecular switches to reversibly interconvert between different forms promises
potential applications at the scale of single molecules up to bulk materials. One type of …
