摘要
Submono-, mono- and multilayers of the Fe(II) spin-crossover (SCO) complex [Fe(bpz)(2)(phen)] (bpz=dihydrobis(pyrazolyl)borate, phen=1,10-phenanthroline) have beenprepared by vacuum deposition on Au(111) substrates and investigated with near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). As evidenced by NEXAFS, molecules of the second layer exhibit a thermal spin crossover transition, although with a more gradual characteristics than in the bulk. For mono- and submonolayers of [Fe(bpz)(2)(phen)] deposited on Au(111) substrates at room temperature both NEXAFS and STM indicate a dissociation of [Fe(bpz)(2)(phen)] on Au(111) into four-coordinate complexes, [Fe(bpz)(2)], and phen molecules. Keeping the gold substrate at elevated temperatures ordered monolayers of intact molecules of [Fe(bpz)(2)(phen)] are formed which can be spin-switched by electron-induced excited spin-state trapping (ELIESST).
