title: Charge-transfer-induced spin transitions in crystals containing cyanide-bridged Co-Fe clusters: role of intra- and intercluster interactions.
abstract: A theoretical model has been developed to explain at the electronic level the charge-transfer-induced spin transition (CTIST) in crystals based on cyano-bridged binuclear Fe-Co clusters. The CTIST is considered as a cooperative phenomenon (phase transformation) driven by the long-range electron-deformational interaction via the acoustic phonons field that is taken into account within the mean field approach. The model for CTIST includes also the metal-metal electron transfer and intracluster magnetic exchange. The conditions that favor the CTIST are discussed. The qualitative explanation of the experimental data is given.
