Abstract

Recently there appeared a lot of new findings in researches on molecular crystals. For example, superconductivity and ferromagnetism, which have been thought to be a characteristic nature of metals, have been observed for organic crystals. Moreover, new solid-state reactions caused by only grinding reactant crystals in a mortar have been observed. The crystalline-state reactions, which proceeds retaining the single crystal form, have been found. In order to elucidate the mechanism of these new findings, it is inevitable to make clear dynamic nature of molecules in a crystal. This special issue makes a survey of the recent development in this field.
