On-Surface Synthesis and Characterization of a High-Spin Aza-[5]-Triangulene

Manuel Vilas-Varela, Francisco Romero-Lara, Alessio Vegliante +13

Triangulenes are open-shell triangular graphene flakes with total spin increasing with their size. In the last years, on-surface-synthesis strategies have permitted fabricating and…

Theory of a Single Magnetic Impurity on a Thin Metal Film in Proximity to a Superconductor

Jon Ortuzar, Jose Ignacio Pascual, F. Sebastian Bergeret +1

We argue that the formation of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov excitations in proximitized thin films is largely mediated by a type of Andreev-bound state named after de Gennes and Saint James. T…

Detecting the spin-polarization of edge states in graphene nanoribbons

Jens Brede, Nestor Merino-Díez, Alejandro Berdonces +9

Low dimensional carbon-based materials are interesting because they can show intrinsic -magnetism associated to p-electrons residing in specific open-shell configurations. Conse…

Pair excitations of a quantum spin on a proximitized superconductor

Stefano Trivini, Jon Ortuzar, Katerina Vaxevani +4

A magnetic impurity interacting with a superconductor develops a rich excitation spectrum formed by superposition of quasiparticles and spin states, which appear as Yu-Shiba-Rusino…

Addressing electron spins embedded in metallic graphene nanoribbons

Niklas Friedrich, Rodrigo E. Menchon, Iago Pozo +7

Spin-hosting graphene nanostructures are promising metal-free systems for elementary quantum spintronic devices. Conventionally, spins are protected from quenching by electronic ba…

Extending the spin excitation lifetime of a magnetic molecule on a proximitized superconductor

Katerina Vaxevani, Jingcheng Li, Stefano Trivini +4

Magnetic molecules deposited on surfaces are a promising platform to individually address and manipulate spins. Long spin excitation lifetimes are necessary to utilize them in quan…
