Mirror twin boundaries (MTB) are line defects found in monolayer MoS2 islands grown via molecular beam epitaxy on graphene on Ir(111). MTBs form a well-defined 1D system of finite length, hosting confined states. When the highest occupied confined state is at the Fermi level, it splits into a singly occupied and doubly unoccupied states, defining an Anderson impurity. The interaction with the substrate electron bath establishes a Kondo resonance [1].
Here, spin-polarised scanning tunnelling spectroscopy measurements on an MTB in presence of out-of-plane magnetic field at a temperature of 0.4 K show an intensity change of the impurity peaks and Kondo resonance as a function of magnetic field. The experimental data is compared to numerical renormalization group calculations, demonstrating the full spin polarisation of both Anderson impurity sates and Kondo resonance.
