Towards High Temperature Light-Induced Spin State Trapping in Spin Crossover materials: the Interplay of Collective and Molecular Effects

Spin crossover (SCO) materials display many fascinating behaviors including collective phase transitions and spin-state switching controlled by external stimuli, e.g., light and electrical currents. As single molecule switches, they have been feted for numerous practical applications, but these remain largely unrealized – partly because of the difficulty of switching these materials at high...
