Magnetic properties of multilayer vanadyl phthalocyanine on Pb(111) — •Piotr Kot, Maximillian Uhl, Robert Drost, and Christian R. Ast — Max Planck Insitute for Solid State Research

Single-molecule magnets have been of great interest to the condensed matter community due to their potential applications in memory storage and quantum computing [1], and their inherent usefulness in studying fundamental quantum mechanics [2]. Here we present a study of vanadyl phthalocyanine (VOPc) molecules which, when deposited in the correct conditions, form multilayer nano-crystals on the surface of Pb(111) with two possible molecular orientations at each layer. Only one of the VOPc orientations on the first layer shows a spin excitation with energy splitting consistent with a spin half system, which agrees with recent findings [3]. The magnetic properties found on the second layer of molecules is also only observed in one of the molecular orientations, and shows strong zero-field splitting. This suggests that the way the first and second layer molecules interact with their environments varies significantly.
