Mössbauer effect study of the electronic ground state of iron(II)in tris(2-chlorophenanthroline)iron(II) perchlorate
1976
Abstract Mossbauer spectra of [Fe(2-Cl-phen) 3 ](ClO 4 ) 2 ·H 2 O have been measured in the temperature range 293 − 5 K. The spectra indicate that the iron atom in this compound possesses a spin quintet ground state throughout the temperature range under study, in contradiction to the suggested high spin-low spin transition, which has been concluded from a magnetic susceptibility study by other authors. From a theoretical analysis of the temperature dependence of the quadrupole splitting, with trigonal distortion, spin-orbit coupling, and effects of covalency taken into account, the ground term of iron(II) in this compound has been elucidated as being 5 A 1 ( 5 T 2g ), separated from the 5 …
Study of thermal spin crossover in [Fe(II)(isoxazole)(6)](BF4)(2) with Mossbauer spectroscopy
2007
Fe-57 Mossbauer spectroscopy of the mononuclear [Fe( II)( isoxazole)(6)]( BF4)(2) compound has been studied to reveal the thermal spin crossover of Fe( II) between low- spin ( S = 0) and high- spin ( S = 2) states. A temperature-dependent spin transition curve has been constructed with the least- square fitted data obtained from the Mossbauer spectra measured at various temperatures in the 240 - 60 K range during the cooling and heating cycle. The compound exhibits a temperature- dependent two- step spin transition phenomenon with T-SCO ( step 1) = 92 and TSCO ( step 2) = 191 K. The compound has three highspin Fe( II) sites at the highest temperature of study; among them, two have slightly …
Recent Advances of Spin Crossover Research
2004
Thermal spin transition (spin crossover), one of the most fascinating dynamic electronic structure phenomena occurring in coordination compounds of third row transition metal ions, mostly of iron(II), iron(III) and cobalt(II) with critical ligand field strengths competing with the spin pairing energy, has attracted increasing attention by many research groups. One of the reasons is the promising potential for practical applications. In this chapter we intend to cover essential recent work, primarily accomplished within the European research network on "Thermal and Optical Switching of Molecular Spin States (TOSS)". New spin crossover compounds and their thermal spin transition behaviour, al…
Plasmon-assisted spin transition in gold nanostar@spin crossover heterostructures
2021
Aquí presentamos el diseño de nanopartículas core@shell formadas por un núcleo de nanoestrella de Au metálico y una capa cruzada de espín basada en el polímero de coordinación [Fe(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4). Este procedimiento es general y se ha extendido a otras morfologías metálicas (nanovarillas, nanotriángulos). Gracias al efecto fototérmico derivado de las propiedades plasmónicas de la nanoestrella de Au, el 60 % de los centros de hierro experimentan una transición de espín térmico dentro de la histéresis térmica provocada por una irradiación de baja intensidad con un láser de 808 nm. En comparación con otras morfologías de Au, la gran ventaja de la forma de nanoestrella surge de los puntos cal…
Observation of individual spin quantum transitions of a single antiproton
2017
We report on the detection of individual spin quantum transitions of a single trapped antiproton in a Penning trap. The spin-state determination, which is based on the unambiguous detection of axial frequency shifts in presence of a strong magnetic bottle, reaches a fidelity of 92.1% . Spin-state initialization with >99.9% fidelity and an average initialization time of 24 min are demonstrated. This is a major step towards an antiproton magnetic moment measurement with a relative uncertainty on the part-per-billion level. We report on the detection of individual spin quantum transitions of a single trapped antiproton in a Penning trap. The spin-state determination, which is based on the unam…
Light-induced formation of metastable high-spin states in [Fe(mtz)6](CiO4)2
1988
[Fe(mtz)6](CiO4)2 (mtz=1-methyltetrazole) is a spin crossover compound with two different iron(II) lattice sites. Only one of them (lattice site A) shows thermally induced high spin (HS) ⇌ low spin (LS) spin transition. The LIESST effect (Light-Induced Excited Spin State Trapping) can be observed below 50 K. Complex molecules in B-sites remain in HS state at all temperatures. At ∼ 20 K irradiation with red light causes a partial conversion to another HS species, HS(C), with also practically infinite lifetime.
Spin transition in iron complexes induced by heat, pressure, light and nuclear decay
1988
The phenomenon of temperature-dependent spin transition will be introduced and the numerous chemical and physical influences affecting the spin transition characteristics will be discussed. We shall mainly concentrate on the spin crossover system [Fe(2-pic)3]X2·Sol (2-pic=2-aminomethylpyridine; X=Cl, Br; Sol=C2H5OH, CH3OH) and demonstrate how the behaviour of the spin transition5T2g(Oh)⇌1A1g(Oh) is influenced by substituting the metalion, the non-coordinating anions X, the crystal solvent molecules Sol and by isotopic exchange with H/D and14N/15N. It will also be shown that the spin transition is very susceptible to pressure. A quantitative spin state conversion from low spin to high spin c…
Pressure effect on a novel spin transition polymeric chain compound
2000
[Fe(hyptrz)3]A2·H2O (hyptrz = 4-(3′-hydroxypropyl)-1,2,4-triazole and A = 4-chlorobenzenesulfonate) represents a novel iron(II) polymeric chain compound. A discontinuous spin transition has been observed by temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements. The spin transition curves are shifted from 181 K to 324 K as the pressure varies from 1 bar to 5.9 kbar. The shapes of these curves are not strongly modified, and this is interpreted as being due to effective cooperative interactions along the chain. This behaviour under pressure can be extended to the family of iron(II)-1,2,4-triazole polymeric chain spin crossover materials.
