“…Data collection: PROCESS-AUTO (Rigaku, 1998); cell refinement: PROCESS-AUTO; data reduction: CrystalStructure (Rigaku, 2007) Curie temperatures (T C ) (Ferlay et al, 1995;Holmes & Girolami, 1999;Hatlevik et al, 1999;Ohkoshi et al, 2000), humidity-response , photomagnetism (Ohkoshi & Hashimoto, 2001;Sato et al, 1996;Ohkoshi et al,1997), and zero thermal expansion (Margadonna et al, 2004 (Ludi et al, 1970;Ludi & Güdel, 1973;Güdel et al, 1973) and et al, 1992;Zeigler et al, 1999;Kato et al, 2003), where M A and M B are transition metal ions and A is an alkali metal ion. Recently, rubidium manganese hexacyanoferrate, Rb x Mn[Fe(CN) 6 ] (x + 2)/3 .zH 2 O, has received attention due to its various functionalities such as a charge-transfer phase transition (Tokoro et al, 2004;Ohkoshi et al, 2005), a pressureinduced magnetic pole inversion (Egan et al, 2006), and a photomagnetic effect .…”
