Out-of-equilibrium dynamics driven by photoinduced charge transfer in CsCoFe Prussian blue analogue nanocrystals

Résumé

In this paper we study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics associated with photoinduced charge-transfer (CT) in cyanide-bridged Co-Fe Prussian blue analogue nanocrystals. In these coordination networks, the structural trapping of the photoinduced CT polaron involves local electronic and structural reorganizations. Femtosecond X-ray and optical absorption spectroscopies show that the local structural trapping process occurs on similar timescale for particles with 11 nm and 70 nm sizes. The local photoinduced spin transition, elongating the Co-N bonds and driving the (CoFeII)-Fe-III -> (CoFeIII)-Fe-II CT, activates coherent lattice torsion modes. The elastic deformation waves, launched by these bond elongations, drive macroscopic volume expansion and breathing of the particles. The timescale of this macroscopic deformation depends strongly on the size of the particle, which is more evidence of the multiscale nature of photoinduced phenomena in molecular materials.
