Strengthening of France-Japan collaboration in the field of materials: Dynacom (for Dynamical Control of Materials) is an international research laboratory (IRL) between the CNRS, the University of Tokyo and the University of Rennes 1. It is located on the Hongo campus, in Tokyo, Japan. This laboratory is the result of a long-standing collaboration, which began in 1996, between Japanese teams in Tokyo and French scientists from the Institut de Physique de Rennes. Joint research projects, exchanges of students and professors, study trips, for 26 years, scientists have used the full range of international collaboration tools offered by the CNRS, the University of Rennes 1 and the University of Tokyo, until setting up an International Research Project, named IM-LED, in 2016. A new milestone has now been reached with the creation of an IRL, which highlights this emblematic and strategic collaboration. The Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tohoku University, Kyoto University in Japan, and Nantes University in France will also be involved in the Dynacom laboratory.

Alajos Kálmán Prize for Éric Collet
The Alajos Kálmán Prize goes to Professor Éric Collet from the Institute of Physics in Rennes, France, who performs his inspirational interdisciplinary research at the interface of material science, chemistry and physics with crystallography at the very heart of his work. Prof Collet is one of the pioneers who paved the way for the subsequent studies in the greatly innovative field of X-ray free electron lasers science. He with his collaborators made high impact studies of ultra-fast femto second experiments, ultra-fast photo excitations like photo induced structural dynamics, phase transitions and molecular switching.
His outstanding achievement is based on the structural study of molecular complexes and new transition mechanisms, especially from the molecular to the crystal scale.
Faraday Discussion issue: From optical to THz control of materials
It was a great pleasure to chair the Faraday Discussion meeting in London about ultrafast control of the physical properties of materials by light excitation and/or THz excitation. The unique format of the Faraday Discussions allowed for in-depth discussions, stimulating new thoughts and defining new horizons. The issue has now been published online.

Photoinduced charge-transfer can lead to various important and interesting phenomena, such as magnetism, ferroelectricity and photocatalysis. However, an atomic-scale description of the initial photoinduced process, which couples intermetallic charge-transfer and spin-transition, is still under debate because of the speed at which it occurs. Now, a team led by Eric Collet and Marco Cammarata have used femtosecond X-ray spectroscopy to reveal how photomagnetism emerges in cyanide-bridged CoFe coordination networks. They see that it is the spin-transition on the cobalt atom, occurring within ~50 fs, that drives the subsequent electron transfer from Fe (red) to Co (blue) within 200 fs.

Chicken? Egg? Well, to tell the truth, after performing the experiment we initially found that we went "home late"
Chicken-egg
Our last study published in Nature Chemistry: Charge-transfer driven by photoinduced spin-transition, this is the way!
Among photoactive materials, Prussian blue analogues (PBA) are of specific interest, as light can address a broad variety of functions: photoexcitation of the diamagnetic CoIII(S=0)FeII(S=0) system generates the magnetic CoII(S=3/2)FeIII(S=1/2) state, with a charge-transfer coupled to a spin transition on the Co. However, questions about the photoinduced processes were unanswered. Does charge-transfer induce spin-transition or vice versa, which is the way?
Way
In our paper entitled "Charge-transfer driven by ultrafast spin-transition in a CoFe Prussian blue analogue" published in Nature chemistry (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41557-020-00597-8) we reveal the process, thanks to the element-specific X-ray absorption data, measured at both the Fe and Co K-edges, allowed for monitoring the ∼50 fs dynamics of the spin transition around the Co and the ∼200 fs Charge-transfer dynamics. This study, including also optical spectroscopy data and DFT calculations, demonstrates that it is the elongation of the Co-N bonds, induced by the optical excitation, which drives the charge-transfer.

Electronic and structural dynamics during the switching of the photomagnetic complex [Fe(L222N5)(CN)2].
The [Fe(L222N5)(CN)2] compound is a photomagnetic FeII (ferrous) based coordination compound, which undergoes light-induced excited spin-state trapping (LIESST). The low spin state is hexacoordinated and the high spin state heptacoordinated. This system also serves as complex for the design of trinuclear or one-dimensional compounds made of other types of bricks with diverse coordinated metals. Here we study its ultrafast spin-state photoswitching dynamics, by combining femtosecond optical spectroscopy and femtosecond X-ray absorption measurements at the XPP station of the X-ray free-electron laser LCLS. DFT and TD-DFT calculations are used to interpret experimental findings. These studies performed in the solution phase show that LIESST in [Fe(L222N5)(CN)2] occurs on the 100 fs timescale under different types of photoexcitation. In addition, we observe coherent oscillations resulting from the structural dynamics accompanying LIESST, which were recently evidenced in more conventional octahedral FeIIN6 systems.

Photoinduced structural dynamics of molecular systems mapped by time-resolved x-ray methods.
Chemical Reviews
We review the tremendous advances in ultrafast X-ray science, over the past 15 years, making the best use of new ultrashort x-ray sources including table-top or large-scale facilities. Different complementary x-ray based techniques, including spectroscopy, scattering and diffraction, are presented. The broad and expanding spectrum of these techniques in the ultrafast time domain, is delivering new insight into the dynamics of molecular systems, of solutions, of solids and of Biosystems. Probing the time evolution of the electronic and structural degrees of freedom of these systems on the timescales of femtosecond to picoseconds delivers new insight into our understanding of dynamical matter.

Chemical Science:
Comparison of structural dynamics and coherence of d-d and MLCT light-induced spin state trapping
Chemical Science
Light Induced Excited Spin State Trapping (LIESST) in FeII spin-crossover systems is a process switching molecules from low (LS, S=0) to high spin (HS, S=2) states. The direct LS-to-HS conversion being forbidden by selection rules, LIESST involves intermediate states such as 1,3MLCT or 1,3T. The intersystem crossing sequence results in a HS state, structurally trapped by metal-ligand bond elongation through the coherent activation and damping of molecular breathing. The ultrafast dynamics of this process was so far investigated in FeN6 ligand field systems, under MLCT excitation. Here we study LIESST in an FeIIN4O2 spin-crossover material of lower symmetry, which allows quite intense and low-energy shifted d-d bands. By combining ab-initio DFT and TD-DFT calculations and fs optical absorption measurements we demonstrate that, compared to MLCT, d-d excitation induces faster LS-to-HS switching and that the shorter intermediates enhance coherent structural dynamics.

Nature Communication:
Coherent structural trapping through wave packet dispersion during photoinduced spin state switching
The description of ultrafast nonadiabaticchemical dynamics during molecular photo-transformations remains challenging because electronic and nuclear structures impact each other and cannot be treated independently. Here we gain new experimental insights, beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, into the light-induced spin-state trapping (LIESST) dynamics of the prototypical [Fe(bpy)3]2+ compound by time-resolved XANES spectroscopy at sub-30-femtosecond resolution and high signal to noise ratio. The electronic decay from the initial optically excited electronic state towards the high spin state is distinguished from the structural trapping dynamics, which launches a coherent oscillating wave packet (265 fs period) clearly identified as molecular breathing. Throughout the structural trapping, the dispersion of the wave packet along the reaction coordinate reveals details of intramolecular vibronic coupling before a slower vibrational energy dissipation to the solution environment. These findings revisiting the LIESST process illustrate how modern time-resolved XANES provides key information to unravel dynamic details of photo-functional molecules.

Ordering phenomena of high-spin/low-spin states in stepwise spin-crossover materials described by the ANNNI model
Physical Review B 93 014419 (2016)
Research topics
In molecular materials, interactions brought into play result in fragile equilibrium between multistable states, switchable under the effect of temperature or pressure and we are investigating how light can switch them.
Our team is investigating the mechanisms driving these switching at thermal equilibrium or in highly out-of-equilibrium dynamics by using state-of-the art techniques in our laboratory (photo-crystallography, ultrafast optical spectroscopy…) and also large facilities (X-FEL, synchrotron, …).
X-ray diffraction
The scientific issues deal with understanding and controlling switching between multi-stable states, in particular driven by light. The new field of photoinduced phase transitions deals with the study and the control of material’s response to light excitation. Indeed, light excitation, of continuous or pulsed nature, may induce the transformation materials towards another phase of different electronic/structural order. This new way of acting on matter combines many of today’s interconnecting issues such as far away from equilibrium phenomena, coherence and quantum control, correlated behaviour and nonlinear responsiveness, interconversion of energy and information, … These are key elements for the advent of control science, where the challenge is not only to observe matter on ever smaller scale but also to direct its functionality at the relevant length, time and energy scales. Our knowledge in the study of complex materials or ordering phenomena is a strong input in the study of multi-stability.
