- Abstract
- One of the main barriers hindering applications of Prussian blue metal assemblies is their poor processability, which makes the fabrication of intact thin films very difficult. In this work, a nanocrystalline RbMn[Fe(CN)6]·xH2O film on silicon substrate was obtained for the first time via laser-stimulated deposition and investigated. Temperature-induced phase transition and bistability within broad hysteresis loop (120 K), along with transition temperatures up to 317 K, which is the highest in the RbMnFe series, were observed using variable-temperature Raman spectroscopy. This study thus proposes a reliable deposition approach for preparing a functional magnetic materials that operate at room temperature.
