Magnetic, electronic and vibrational properties of metal and fluorinated metal phthalocyanines

Abstract

The magnetic and electronic properties of metal phthalocyanines (MPc) and fluorinated metal phthalocyanines (F${}_{16}$MPc) are studied by means of spin density functional theory (SDFT). Several metals (M) such as Ca, all first d-row transition metals and Ag are investigated. By considering different open shell transition metals it is possible to tune the electronic properties of MPc, in particular the electronic molecular gap and total magnetic moment. Besides assigning the structural and electronic properties of MPc and F${}_{16}$MPc, the vibrational modes analysis of the ScPc\textendash ZnPc series have been studied and correlated to experimental measurements when available.
