Optical metasurfaces—patterned arrays of plasmonic nanoantennas that enable the precise manipulation light–matter interactions—are emerging as critical components in many nanophotonic materials, including planar metamaterials, chemical and biological sensors, photovoltaics. The development these materials has been slowed by difficulty efficiently fabricating patterns with required combinations intricate nanoscale structure, high areal density, and/or heterogeneous composition. One convenient...

Abstract The Fe(II) spin crossover complex [Fe{H 2 B(pz) } (bipy)] (pz = pyrazol‐1‐yl, bipy 2,2′‐bipyridine) can be locked in a largely low‐spin‐state configuration over temperature range that includes temperatures well above the thermal of 160 K. This locking state is achieved for nanometer thin films this two distinct ways: through substrate interactions with dielectric substrates such as SiO and Al O 3 , or powder samples by mixing strongly dipolar zwitterionic p ‐benzoquinonemonoimine C...

Double-decker phthalocyanine lanthanide complexes are single molecule magnets (SMMs) presenting a thermally activated magnetic relaxation with relatively high effective barriers. For this reason they potential candidates as components for data storage and spintronic devices. One of the disadvantages these compounds is their redox instability: oxidized or reduced in presence mild oxidizing reducing agents. To solve issue, we designed, prepared characterized new double-decker based SMMs...
