Abstract

Single layer low-dimensional materials are presently of emerging interest, also in the context of magnetism. We further developed on-surface supra-molecular architecturing to create two-dimensional spin arrays. By chemical programming of the modules, different checkerboards were produced containing metals of different oxidation and spin states, diamagnetic zinc, and a metal-free ‘spacer’. [1] In an in-depth, spectro-microscopy and theoretical account, we correlate the structure and the magnetic properties of these tunable systems and discuss the emergence of 2D Kondo magnetism [2] from the spin-bearing components and via the physico-chemical bonding to the underlying substrate. The contributions of the individual elements, as well as the role of the electronic surface state in the bottom substrate, are discussed. Also we show the the first free-standing single layer networks of calixarenes stabilized via functional groups enabling vdW, coordination and dipole-dipole, interaction.
