| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we aim to find light induced ferroelectricity in the spin crossover complex [MnIII(taa)]. [MnIII(taa)] molecule possesses a electric dipole moment due to a dynamic Jahn-Teller effect in its high spin state. Because of an existence of a cooperative interaction between electric dipole moments, the ferroelectricity is expected to appear by light induced spin crossover from the low spin to the high spin state. To find this phenomenon, the dielectric and electric polarization measurement systems, and microwave ESR system, in which the measurements under illumination of light can be carried out, were developed. Although the light induced ferroelectricity was not observed, we found interesting magnetocapacitance effects, in which the dielectric constant changes more than 100% by applied magnetic field.
