„Inverted” hysteresis in bilayer Fe(II) spin crossover system

Abstract

The coupling between the spin state and the complex motion of the individual alkyl chains results in a unique thermal hysteresis exhibiting an "inverted” loop. Specifically, the high-spin (HS) → low-spin (LS) transition upon cooling to occur at a higher temperature than the LS → HS transition upon heating.
