Observation of an Fe(Ⅱ) Spin-Crossover in a Cesium Iron Hexacyanochromate

摘要

We found that a cesium iron hexacyanochromate showed a spin-crossover behavior. The spin-crossover phenomenon in a Prussian blue analogue allows a variety of new functionalities to be considered. For example, the observation of photoinduced magnetization caused by a light-induced excited spin state trapping effect is expected since this material has a spontaneous magnetization.
