A Mechanism for Photoinduced Effects In Tetracyanoethylene-Based Organic Magnets
Serkan Erdin ; Michel van Veenendaal ;
Date 13 Jun 2006
Subject Materials Science; Strongly Correlated Electrons
AbstractThe photoinduced magnetism in manganese-tetracyanoethylene (Mn-TCNE) molecule-based magnets is ascribed to charge-transfer excitations from manganese to TCNE. Charge-transfer energies are calculated using Density Functional Theory; photoinduced magnetization is described using a model Hamiltonian based on a double-exchange mechanism. Photoexciting electrons from the manganese core spin into the lowest unoccupied orbital of TCNE with photon energies around 3 eV increases the magnetization through a reduction of the canting angle of the manganese core spins for an average electron density on TCNE less than one. When photoexciting with a smaller energy, divalent TCNE molecules are formed. The delocalization of the excited electron causes a local spin flip of a manganese core spin.
