Nanoscale spin crossover materials capable of undergoing reversible switching between
two electronic configurations with markedly different physical properties are excellent …

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 …

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 …

The first crystal structures of a dinuclear iron (II) complex with three N 1, N 2-1, 2, 4-triazole
bridges in the high-spin and low-spin states are reported. Its sharp spin transition, which was …

The low-temperature photoinduced effects of the spin-crossover [{Fe (2-pytrz) 2 [Pd (CN) 4]}].
3 H 2 O single crystal have been investigated by means of a cryogenic optical microscopy …

In this paper, we present the ingredients that allow the building-up of the elastic model, one
of the approaches that successfully describes the phenomena observed in complex spin …

Spin-transition materials, including the families of spin-crossover and charge-transfer
systems, and more generally molecular-based materials exhibiting electronic and/or …

We investigated by optical microscopy the propagation of the thermal spin transition in [Fe
(btr) 2 (NCS) 2]· H 2 O·(btr= bis-triazole) single crystals. Using high-quality fresh crystals …

A three-dimensional version of the electroelastic model allowing the description of spin-
crossover (SCO) materials taking into account for the volume change at the transition …

The observation and the study of first-order phase transitions in cooperative spin-crossover
(SCO) solids exhibiting hysteresis behaviours are of particular interest and currently …
