It is a challenge to reversibly switch both magnetism and polarity using light irradiation. Herein we report a linear Fe Co complex, whereby interconversion between Fe (μ-CN)Co (μ-NC)Fe (LS=low-spin, HS=high-spin) and Fe (μ-CN)Co (μ-NC)Fe linkages could be achieved upon heating and cooling, or alternating laser irradiation at 808 and 532 nm. The electron spin arrangement and charge distribution were simultaneously tuned accompanying bidirectional metal-to-metal charge transfer, providing switchable polarity and magnetism in the complex.
用光照射来可逆地切换磁性和极性是一个挑战。在此,我们报告了一种线性 Fe-Co 配合物,通过加热和冷却,或在 808nm 和 532nm 之间交替激光照射,Fe(μ-CN)Co(μ-NC)Fe(LS=低自旋,HS=高自旋)和 Fe(μ-CN)Co(μ-NC)Fe 键之间可以实现相互转换。电子自旋排列和电荷分布同时被调谐,伴随着双向的金属-金属电荷转移,在配合物中提供了可切换的极性和磁性。
