Phase transitions in polymeric systems: A challenge for Monte Carlo simulation

1995

Polymers are more difficult to simulate than small molecule systems, due to the large size of random polymer coils (and their slow relaxation, that is observed when dynamic simulation algorithms are used). However, variation of the chain length N of a flexible polymer chain provides a very useful additional control parameter, allowing stringent tests of theories, and new physical phenomena may emerge. As an example of these concepts, critical phenomena in polymer mixtures are described. It is shown that unmixing of symmetrical mixtures ( N A = N B = N ) is described by an equation for the critical temperature T c ( N ) = aN + b rather than T c ∝ N as claimed by some theories. While for fini…

Synthesis and characterisation of tetrazole compounds: 3 series of new ligands representing versatile building blocks for iron(II) spin-crossover com…

2005

Abstract New tetrazole compounds were synthesized and characterised by NMR and FTIR spectroscopy as well as by single crystal X-ray diffraction. We present in this paper mono- and ditetrazoles, which represent a versatile class of building blocks for the formation of mononuclear iron(II) complexes with monotetrazoles as terminal ligands as well as iron(II) coordination polymers with ditetrazoles as bridging ligands. Especially, the series of α,ω-bis[tetrazol-1-yl]-alkanes open the field of fascinating supramolecular structures with spin transition properties.

Pressure effect studies on spin crossover systems

2005

Abstract In the present review article we discuss the results of investigations of the influence of hydrostatic pressure (up to 1.2 GPa) on the spin transition behaviour in coordination compounds of 3d transition metal ions. The systems under investigation are mononuclear spin crossover compounds of iron(II) and chromium(II), dinuclear complexes of iron(II) exhibiting coexistence of intramolecular anti-ferromagnetic coupling and thermal spin crossover, and 1D, 2D and 3D polynuclear spin crossover complexes of iron(II). It is demonstrated that the application of hydrostatic pressure serves as a tool for modifying the ligand field strength in a controlled manner.

Phase Trapping in Multistep Spin Crossover Compound

2020

The dimeric motif is the smallest unit for two interacting spin centers allowing for systematic investigations of cooperative interactions. As spin transition compounds, dinuclear complexes are of particular interest, since they potentially reveal a two-step spin crossover (SCO), switching between the high spin-high spin [HS-HS], the high spin-low spin [HS-LS], and the low spin-low spin [LS-LS] states. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of six dinuclear iron(II) complexes [FeII2(μ2-L1)2](BF4)4 (C1), [FeII2(μ2-L1)2](ClO4)4 (C2), [FeII2(μ2-L1)2](F3CSO3)4 (C3), [FeII2(μ2-L2)2](BF4)4 (C4), [FeII2(μ2-L2)2](BF4)4 (C5), and [FeII2(μ2-L2)2](BF4)4 (C6), based on the 1,3,4-thiadiazo…

Spin-crossover iron(ii) complex showing thermal hysteresis around room temperature with symmetry breaking and an unusually high T(LIESST) of 120 K.

2019

We report a Fe(II) complex based on 4′,4′′ carboxylic acid disubstituted dipyrazolylpyridine that shows a spin-crossover close to room temperature associated to a crystallographic phase transition and the LIESST effect with a high T(LIESST) of 120 K.

Spin crossover in soft matter

2014

Abstract This review article is devoted to the study of the spin crossover phenomenon in soft matter. Spin crossover compounds, though known for decades, bear the potential for practical applications in switching, sensing and display devices. Having arrived at a reasonable understanding of the spin transition process in solid and liquid states, one trend in this research field is to extend the knowledge into soft matter. The review begins with a brief description of Langmuir–Blodgett thin films based on FeII coordination compounds since it represents the first study of the spin crossover phenomenon in soft matter. The following section illustrates the FeII, FeIII and CoII complexes reported…

The intermediate coherent scattering function of entangled polymer melts: a Monte Carlo test of des Cloizeaux' theory

1994

Using the bond fluctuation model for flexible polymer chains in a dense melt the intermediate coherent scattering function for chains containing N=200 monomers is calculated and interpreted in terms of a recent theory of des Cloizeaux. The theory yields an explicit description for the crossover from the Rouse model to the regime where reptation prevails, for the limit N→∞. While the Monte Carlo data are qualitatively compatible with this description, an accurate estimation of the tube diameter is prevented due to the onset of a diffusive decay of the scattering function, not included in the theory. For a full quantitative analysis of the Monte Carlo data (as well as of experiments on chains…

Dynamical Scaling in Polymer Solutions Investigated by the Neutron Spin-Echo Technique

1979

Chain dynamics in polymer solutions was investigated by means of the recently developed neutron spin echo spectroscopy. — By this technique, it was possible for the first time to verify unambiguously the scaling predictions of the Zimm model in the case of single chain behaviour and to observe the cross over to many chain behaviour. The segmental diffusion of single chains exhibits deviations from a simple exponential law, indicating the importance of memory effects. Mit Hilfe der erst kurzlich entwickelten Neutronen-Spin-Echo-Spektroskopie wurde die Kettendynamik von Polymermolekulen im gelosten Zustand untersucht. - Die Methode eroffnete die Moglichkeit, zum ersten Mal fur das Einzelkette…
