Phthalocyanine and derived metal complexes on thin insulating layers studied by scanning tunneling microscope-induced luminescence (STML) offers an excellent playground for tuning their excitonic and electronic states by Coulomb interaction and to showcase their high environmental sensitivity.[1] Copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) has an open-shell electronic structure and its lowest-energy exciton is a doublet which brings interesting prospects in its application for optospintronic devices. Here, we demonstrate that the excitonic state of a single CuPc molecule can be reproducibly switched by atomic scale manipulations permitting precise positioning of the molecule on the NaCl ionic crystal lattice.[2] Using a combination of STML, AFM and ab-initio calculations, we show the modulation of electronic and optical bandgaps, and the exciton binding energy in CuPc by tens of meV. We explain this effect by spatially-dependent Coulomb interaction occurring at the molecule-insulator interface, which tunes the local dielectric environment of the emitter.References:[1] J.
