- The major problem in spin-crossover research is tuning the transition temperature (T) to above room temperature, while keeping the transition abrupt. Almost all compounds of the reported type have transitions between 200 and 260K. This work achieves >300K and opens the way to step-wise tuning by crystal engineering to include weak intermolecular interactions. This paper directly led to the PhD student (Attwood) gaining a post-doctoral fellowship at Imperial College.
