摘要
The transformation from ionic to neutral phases in tetrathiafulvalene-p-chloranil crystals is induced by exciting the charge-transfer absorption band below the transition temperature. The transformation takes place only above a threshold intensity of excitation, and the efficiency of generating neutral-phase domains is lower than the case induced by the excitation in intramolecular optical transitions of tetrathiafulvalene molecules. The mechanism of the photoinduced phase transition in this crystal is discussed based on these results. [S0163-1829(99)15133-6].
