Once considered rigid, static, and unreactive, molecular crystals are increasingly recognized as exhibiting a rich set of atomic dynamics, which in many cases result in materials with adaptive responsiveness to external stimuli, such as light, heat, and mechanical stress. This paradigm shift has prompted a new area of research on dynamic crystalline systems that are now recognized as ideal building blocks for a broad range of functional materials with switchable properties, such as mechanical, optical, optoelectronic, electronic, magnetic, structural properties, and dynamic behaviors ranging from the nanoscale (eg, molecular reorientation and isomerization) up to the macroscopic scale (eg, bulk crystals jumping, deformation, shape-shifting). 1− 3 Lattice dynamics arising from atomic, molecular, and collective vibrations are believed to be at the core of this complex and multidimensional functional landscape even though clear connections between local and long-range vibrations, structures, and functions are far from being understood. In this context, this Virtual Special Issue (VSI) in Crystal Growth & Design aims to highlight the latest efforts to elucidate the role of lattice dynamics for the design, development, and characterization of new dynamic molecular crystals with unexplored properties. In this editorial, the guest editors of the VSI have highlighted ongoing and emerging trends, and future outlooks of this exciting field to spur the interest of the community, with the hope to stimulate new multidisciplinary and collaborative efforts of researchers around the world to uncover the role of lattice dynamics in dictating the properties and functions of crystalline dynamic materials.
