Topological design and synthesis of high-spin aza-triangulenes without Jahn-Teller distortions
James Lawrence, Yuanyuan He, Haipeng Wei +8
The atomic doping of open-shell nanographenes enables the precise tuning of their electronic and magnetic state, which is crucial for their promising potential applications in opto…
Direct experimental evidence for substrate adatom incorporation into a molecular overlayer
Philip J. Mousley, Luke A. Rochford, Paul T. P. Ryan +11
While the phenomenon of metal substrate adatom incorporation into molecular overlayers is generally believed to occur in several systems, the experimental evidence for this relies…
Magnetic Interactions Between Radical Pairs in Chiral Graphene Nanoribbons
Tao Wang, Sofia Sanz, Jesús Castro-Esteban +8
Magnetic graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have become promising candidates for future applications, including quantum technologies. Here, we characterize magnetic states hosted by chira…
Order from a mess: the growth of 5-armchair graphene nanoribbons
Alejandro Berdonces-Layunta, Fabian Schulz, Fernando Aguilar-Galindo +6
The advent of on-surface chemistry under vacuum has vastly increased our capabilities to synthesize carbon-nanomaterials with atomic precision. Among the types of target structures…
Circumventing the Stability Problems of Graphene Nanoribbon Zigzag Edges
James Lawrence, Alejandro Berdonces-Layunta, Shayan Edalatmanesh +7
Carbon nanostructures with zigzag edges exhibit unique properties with exciting potential applications. Such nanostructures are generally synthesized under vacuum because their zig…
A Large Starphene Comprising Pentacene Branches
Jan Holec, Beatrice Cogliati, James Lawrence +9
Starphenes are attractive compounds due to their characteristic physicochemical properties that are inherited from acenes, making them interesting compounds for organic electronics…
Transferring Axial Molecular Chirality Through a Sequence of On-Surface Reactions
Néstor Merino-Díez, Mohammed S. G. Mohammed, Jesús Castro-Esteban +6
Fine management of chiral processes on solid surfaces has progressed over the years, yet still faces the need for the controlled and selective production of advanced chiral materia…
Hierarchy in the halogen activation during surface-promoted Ullmann coupling
Néstor Merino-Díez, Alejandro Pérez Paz, Jingcheng Li +9
Within the collection of surface-supported reactions currently accessible for the production of extended molecular nanostructures under ultra-high vacuum, Ullmann coupling has been…
Probing the magnetism of topological end-states in 5-armchair graphene nanoribbons
James Lawrence, Pedro Brandimarte, Alejandro Berdonces +5
We extensively characterize the electronic structure of ultra-narrow graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with armchair edges and zig-zag termini that have 5 carbon atoms across their width…
