Strengthening the Magnetic Interactions in Pseudobinary First-Row Transition Metal Thiocyanates, M(NCS)2 (2020)
Journal Article
Bassey, E. N., Paddison, J. A., Keyzer, E. N., Lee, J., Manuel, P., da Silva, I., …Cliffe, M. J. (2020). Strengthening the Magnetic Interactions in Pseudobinary First-Row Transition Metal Thiocyanates, M(NCS)2. Inorganic Chemistry, 59(16), 11627–11639. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.inorgchem.0c01478

Understanding the effect of chemical composition on the strength of magnetic interactions is key to the design of magnets with high operating temperatures. The magnetic divalent first-row transition metal (TM) thiocyanates are a class of chemically s...

Direct imaging of correlated defect nanodomains in a metal-organic framework (2020)
Journal Article
Johnstone, D. N., Firth, F. C., Grey, C. P., Midgley, P. A., Cliffe, M. J., & Collins, S. M. (2020). Direct imaging of correlated defect nanodomains in a metal-organic framework. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 142(30), 13081–13089. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.0c04468

Defect engineering can enhance key properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Tailoring the distribution of defects, for example in correlated nanodomains, requires characterization across length scales. However, a critical na-noscale characteriz...

The Structures of Ordered Defects in Thiocyanate Analogues of Prussian Blue (2020)
Journal Article
Cliffe, M., Keyzer, E., Bond, A., Astle, M. A., & Grey, C. (2020). The Structures of Ordered Defects in Thiocyanate Analogues of Prussian Blue. Chemical Science, 11(17), 4430-4438. https://doi.org/10.1039/D0SC01246G

We report the structures of six new divalent transition metal hexathiocyanatobismuthate frame-
works with the generic formula {M[Bi(SCN)6]2+x }x− {guest}x+, M = Mn, Co, Ni and Zn. These 3 frameworks are defective analogues of the perovskite-derived... Read More about The Structures of Ordered Defects in Thiocyanate Analogues of Prussian Blue.
