Phase change materials (PCM) have drawn increasing attention for their promising applications in thermal switch, data communication and energy storage. Because of the complexity of the interactions between molecules, it...

Crystal phase transformation is often accompanied with the change of corresponding physical properties. For instance, dielectric properties may undergo abrupt changes near phase transition temperatures. For organic-inorganic hybrid materials, designing...

Three-dimensional anion frameworks loaded with small cationic molecules are often reasonable models for design of switching materials. However, due to limitations of bond length and structural stability, it is difficult...
