Emergence of π-magnetism in open-shell nanographenes has been theoretically predicted
decades ago but their experimental characterization was elusive due to the strong chemical …

Turning graphene magnetic is a promising challenge to make it an active material for
spintronics. Predictions state that graphene structures with specific shapes can …

We report the on-surface synthesis of a nonbenzenoid triradical through dehydrogenation of
truxene (C27H18) on coinage metal and insulator surfaces. Voltage pulses applied via the …

The magnetic properties of carbon materials are at present the focus of intense research
effort in physics, chemistry and materials science due to their potential applications in …

Low dimensional carbon-based materials can show intrinsic magnetism associated to p-
electrons in open-shell π-conjugated systems. Chemical design provides atomically precise …

Nanographenes with sublattice imbalance host a net spin according to Lieb's theorem for
bipartite lattices. Here, we report the on-surface synthesis of atomically precise …

We unveil the nature of the structural disorder in bottom-up zigzag graphene nanoribbons
along with its effect on the magnetism and electronic transport on the basis of scanning …

The porphyrin macrocycle can stabilize a set of magnetic metal ions, thus introducing
localized net spins near the center. However, it remains elusive but most desirable to …

The low-energy electronic structure of nanographenes can be tuned through zero-energy π-
electron states, typically referred to as zero-modes. Customizable electronic and magnetic …
