自旋转换配合物[Fe（C4H4N2）｛Pt（CN4）｝]晶体结构及低温相的研究

本文对自旋转换配合物[Fe(C4H4N2){Pt(CN4)}]进行了晶体结构的理论研究,分析表明XRD测量给出的结构只是一个理想化的结构,不适用于理论计算.我们通过第一性原理计算给出的晶格结构空间群为P2/m,相比较XRD的理想结构的空间群P4/m,其对称性降低,该体系实际属于单斜晶系,而不是测量中所给出的四方晶系的结构.通过对比实验数据特别是对低温相的分析,看出对该配合物的理论计算得出的结构常数及键长与实验数据相吻合.用局域密度近似和广义梯度近似算得的低温相的能量分裂分别为2.7824eV和2.5617eV,故低自旋态为低温相的稳态,这也与实验结论很好的吻合.     

First-Principles Based Model of Spin-state Phase Transition

The nature of spin-state phase transition is investigated with [Fe（C4H4N2）（Pt（CN）4}] that is＂ a novel 3D Hofmann-like compound. The bistability of this system is obtained by the first-principles calculation. It is demonstrated that thermal expansion is the intrinsic force involved in spin-state transition. Based on these results, we suggest a thermal exciting bistable model of spin-state transition with a temperature dependent crystal-field splitting （CFS）. Experimental evidence of spin-state phase transition coincides with our theoretical model. This model approaches something fundamental in the mechanism leading to the transition, and it is important in developing new and practical controllable quantum devices.
