Spin crossover properties of the [Fe(PM-BiA)2(NCS)2] complex - phases I and II
2003
International audience; In the present review, we reexamine the photomagnetic properties of the [Fe(PM-BiA)2(NCS)2], cis-bis(thiocyanato)-bis[(N-2'-pyridylmethylene)-4-(aminobiphenyl)]iron(II), compound which exhibits, depending on the synthetic method, an exceptionally abrupt spin transition (phase I) with a very narrow hysteresis (T1/2O = 168 K and T1/2N = 173 K) or a gradual spin conversion (phase II) occurring at 190 K. In both cases, light irradiation in the tail of the 1MLCT-LS absorption band, at 830 nm, results in the population of the high-spin state according to the light-induced excited spin-state trapping (LIESST) effect. The capacity of a compound to retain the light-induced HS…
Ferroelectric-based nanocomposites : towards multifunctional materials
2007
Nanoparticle technologies open the routes for nanostructured materials which combine individual physical properties or generate new functions. In the field of ferroelectric materials the development of dense nanocomposites requires breakthroughs in the elaboration step. Here, we propose a flexible process to obtain ferroelectric−magnetic nanostructured materials using the assembly of superparamagnetic nanoparticles around ferroelectric cores. The appropriate shaping and sintering of these nanocomposites called nanoraspberries enables a tuning of the physical properties of the resulting dense composite: coexistence between ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity, and superparamagnetism is clearl…
