Paramagnetic organic radicals on rutile TiO2(110) single crystals — •Reza Kakavandi, Sabine-Antonia Savu, Thomas Chassé, and Maria Benedetta Casu — Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry, University of Tübingen, Germany

A novel class of organic compounds, namely the nitronyl nitroxide radicals, has recently gained attention because of its magnetic property. In this work a pyrene-substituted nitronyl nitroxide radical (NitPyn) deposited on well characterized rutile TiO2(110) single crystals has been investigated by using X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. The mechanism of molecular adsorption on the well defined surface, the chemical environment at the interface and the electronic structure of thin films are discussed by analyzing the XPS core level signals. The persistence of the paramagnetic character of the molecules is also discussed with respect to the chemisorption on the surface. Our studies clarifies the orientation of the molecule in the thin films as a function of film thickness as well as the influence of the substrate, identifying the fine balance between molecule-molecule and molecule-substrate interactions.
