Quasi-static nature of the light induced thermal hysteresis in [Fe(ptz)6](BF4)2 spin-transition solid

Abstract: The quasi-static nature of a light induced thermal hysteresis was studied on the spin-transition compound [Fe(ptz) 6 ](BF 4 ) 2 , by means of optical spectroscopy and magnetic measurements in the temperature interval between 10 and 80 K. Various experimental procedures are discussed in relation to the competition between the two processes considered, namely the photoexitation and the high-spin low-spin relaxation. A detailed discussion of the experimental parameters, which should be considered in order to avoi… Show more

“…We interpreted this threshold behavior in terms of the dynamical phase transition 21 of the photoexcited steady state from the ͗n HS ͘Ϸ0 state ͑I ഛ 2 mW/mm 2 ͒ to the ͗n HS ͘Ϸ1͑I ജ 2 mW/mm 2 ͒ state. We further observed optical hysteresis 26 between the I-increasing run and the I-decreasing run, perhaps due to the significant structural change at the PIPT of ͓Fe͑ptz͒ 6 ͔͑BF 4 ͒ 2 . 25 Now, let us qualitatively analyze the experimentally obtained n HS -T curve ͑see ation process of the HS species.…”

“…The kinetics of the photoswitching is in good agreement with previous results obtained by Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetization measurements. 2,6 The magnetization curves of the photoinduced state as a function of field, at 2 K, obtained by PND and SQUID experiments, are presented in Fig. 3.…”

“…The discontinuity observed in the thermal variation of δ(LS) is also associated with the occurrence of SCO. These significant variations are due to the fact that HS and LS molecules have different geometries, as evidenced by X-ray analysis, and these two crystallographic phases afford different lattice contributions. 9a, …”

“…Such a magnetic behavior can be triggered by cooperative interactions between the active metal sites in the crystal, and two strategies have been developed: the polymeric approach, where metal centers are covalently linked by chemical bridges, and the supramolecular approach, using intermolecular interactions in the crystal (π−π stacking, hydrogen bonding). Moreover, few examples of first-order (hysteretic) SCO triggered by a structural phase transition have been reported …”
