Abstract
Fine control and direct monitoring of the spin crossover properties driven by pressure at room temperature are reported for the porous three-dimensional coordination polymer {Fe(pz)[Pt(CN)4]} by using a homemade pressure cell that transforms a DC voltage into pressure. The pressure induced spin state switching is steadily driven through a piezoelectric ceramic element, which transforms the voltage 1−4 kV in pressures in the 0.001−0.035 GPa range. At the same time, the spin state is easily monitored through changes in the optical spectra of the title compound. The results demonstrate that {Fe(pz)[Pt(CN)4]} responds to as small pressure variations as 0.001 GPa (10 atm), thereby proving its efficacy to work as an effective pressure sensor.
