Spin Crossover Systems

Abstract This account constitutes a basic introduction to spin crossover phenomena that is mostly encountered for iron(II) coordination complexes. After briefly describing the occurrence of spin transition in liquid and solid states, the effects of pressure and light irradiation are discussed. Applications and recent trends of this expanding field are also presented.
