Surface aligned magnetic moments and hysteresis of an endohedral single-molecule magnet on a metal

Rasmus Westerström, Anne-Christine Uldry, Roland Stania +10

The interaction between the endohedral unit in the single-molecule magnet Dy${}_2$ScN@C${}_{80}$ and a rhodium (111) substrate leads to alignment of the Dy 4$f$ orbitals. The resulting…
