Spin-Crossover in a Dinuclear Iron(II) Complex on Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite: An X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Study.

ABSTRACT: The spin-crossover (SCO) properties of the dinuclear complex [{Fe(H2B(pz)2)2}2μ-(ac(bipy)2)]$\left[\right. \left{\right. \text{Fe} \left(\left(\right. \left(\text{H}\right)_{2} \text{B} \left(\left(\right. \text{pz} \left.\right)\right)_{2} \left.\right)\right)_{2} \left(\left.\right}\right)_{2} \mu - \left(\right. \left(\text{ac(bipy)}\right)_{2} \left.\right) \left]\right.$ are studied as (sub)-monolayer and thin film deposited by an ultrahigh vacuum liquid-jet deposition technique on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A comparison of the SCO properties of thin films and a dropcast sample indicates that the spin-switching probability of the thin films is limited due to substrate-molecule interactions. The maximum percentage of molecules in the low
