Reversible mechanism for spin crossover in transition-metal cyanides

We report the mechanisms for reversible and repeatable spin transition in a Prussian blue analog crystal, KCo[Fe(CN)[subscript 6]], derived from first-principles calculations. The forward and reverse transitions are initiated by metal-to-metal charge transfer, followed by the d-electron rearrangemen...
