چکیده

We present dynamical properties of spin crossover compounds with photomagnetization, proposing a new model in which the spin-crossover phenomena and magnetic ordering are incorporated in a unified way. By using this model, the novel characteristics observed in Prussian blue analogs are qualitatively well reproduced. We investigate the time evolution of the magnetization and high spin fraction taking into account multi-time scales in a master equation approach for the magnetic relaxation, the lattice (electronic) relaxation, and the photoexcitation process. In particular, processes with different temperature cycles starting from the photoinduced saturated magnetic state are studied including the effect of photoirradiation. In the temperature cycle in the low temperature region where the high spin state has a strong metastability, the magnetization almost exactly follows the quasi-static process. On the other hand, when the temperature is raised above the region, the dy-

Reversible mechanism for spin crossover in transition-metal cyanides

We report the mechanisms for reversible and repeatable spin transition in a Prussian blue analog crystal, KCo[Fe(CN)6], derived from first-principles calculations. The forward and reverse transitions are initiated by metal-to-metal charge transfer, followed by the d-electron rearrangement at the Co center. Further, these transitions are strongly correlated with bond lengths within the crystal l...

Observation of an Fe(II) spin-crossover in a cesium iron hexacyanochromate.

In this work, we observed a spin-crossover phenomenon in a cesium iron hexacyanochromate, which is a Prussian blue analogue. This compound showed a thermal phase transition with transition temperatures of 211 K (T1/2 downward arrow) and 238 K (T1/2 upward arrow) due to a spin-crossover on FeII sites. This spin-crossover phase transition is accompanied by a lattice contraction of 0.38 A, but mai...

Size dependence of the photoinduced magnetism and long-range ordering in Prussian blue analog nanoparticles of rubidium cobalt hexacyanoferrate

Nanoparticles of rubidium cobalt hexacyanoferrate (RbjCok[Fe(CN)6]l · nH2O) were synthesized using different concentrations of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to produce four different batches of particles with characteristic diameters ranging from 3 to 13 nm. Upon illumination with white light at 5 K, the magnetization of these particles increases. The long-range ferrimagnetic ordering temperatures...

By studying the dynamics of the metastable magnetization of a statistical mechanical model we propose a switching mechanism of photoinduced magnetization. The equilibrium and nonequilibrium properties of the Blume-Capel (BC) model, which is a typical model exhibiting metastability, are studied by mean field theory and Monte Carlo simulation. We demonstrate reversible changes of magnetization in...
