Macroscopic Polarization Change via Electron Transfer in a Valence Tautomeric Cobalt Complex

Polarization change from directional electron transfer attracts considerable attention owing to its fast switching rate and potential light control. Here, the authors provide a proof-of-concept of electronic pyroelectricity induced by intramolecular electron transfer in the single crystal of a valen...
