37. This temperature dependence of χT presumably arises from a sizeable orbital contribution to the effective magnetic moment, μ. Reports on CoII (HS) and FeIII (LS) -based complexes have shown that μ ranges from 4.2 to 5.3 μB per ion for the formers

39. and is of the order of 2.4 μB for FeIII (CN) 6 entities [M. F. Tweedle and L. J. Wilson, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 98, 4824 (1976)] in clear contrast with the spin-only moments, 3.87 μB and 1.74 μB, respectively. The magnetic-susceptibility data displayed in Fig. 1 for the quasiequilibrium phases are fairly consistent with the upper values of μ reported for these two species. 10.1021/ja00432a023
40. Several quenching experiments were carried out at 20 or 30 K using various sample amounts and/or sample holders of different heat capacity (see the experimental section). They all gave similar results for the magnetic data characteristic of the HT quenched phase such as the inflection point of the MFC (T) curve at 50 Oe (±0.2 K), the magnetization value at 5 K under 5 T (±3%), or the decay temperature (less than 1 K difference).
41. Previous work by Varret has evidenced the nonrelaxed character of the magnetic domain structure in the raw photoinduced state, see F. Varret, A. Goujon, and A. Bleuzen, Hyperfine Interact. 134, 69 (2001). 10.1023/A: 1013843930216

44. If we assume a phase separation based on chemical heterogeneities, a key point is that the diffraction line splitting occurs at the very first stages, i.e. over the first 15-20 K, of the thermally induced spin transition. It is already apparent as a tail at 230 K, temperature at which the conversion fraction can be estimated as less than 9% from the ratio between the integrated intensities of the (220) lines.
