Revealing the Atomic Site-Dependent g Factor within a Single Magnetic Molecule via the Extended Kondo Effect

Liwei Liu, Kai Yang, Yuhang Jiang +8

The site-dependent g factor of a single magnetic molecule, with intramolecular resolution, is demonstrated for the first time by low-temperature, high-magnetic-field scanning tunne…

Reversible Single Spin Control of Individual Magnetic Molecule by Hydrogen Atom Adsorption

Liwei Liu, Kai Yang, Yuhang Jiang +10

The reversible control of a single spin of an atom or a molecule is of great interest in Kondo physics and a potential application in spin based electronics.Here we demonstrate tha…

Tunable giant magnetoresistance in a single-molecule junction

Kai Yang, Hui Chen, Thomas Pope +12

Controlling electronic transport through a single-molecule junction is crucial for molecular electronics or spintronics. In magnetic molecular devices, the spin degree-of-freedom c…

Exact kinetic energy functional for general many-electron systems

Thomas Pope, Werner Hofer

The exact form of the kinetic energy functional has remained elusive in orbital-free models of density functional theory (DFT). This has been the main stumbling block for the devel…

Is quantum mechanics creationism, and not science?

Werner A Hofer

I revisit the reply of Bohr to Einstein. Bohr's assertion that there are no causes in atomic scale systems is, as a closer analysis reveals, not in line with the Copenhagen interpr…

A two-density approach to the general many-body problem and a proof of principle for small atoms and molecules

Thomas Pope, Werner Hofer

An extended electron model fully recovers many of the experimental results of quantum mechanics while it avoids many of the pitfalls and remains generally free of paradoxes. The fo…
