The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color centers in nanodiamonds can be utilized as low-cost, highly versatile quantum sensors for studying surface properties in condensed matter physics through the application of relaxometry protocols. For such applications, a detailed knowledge of the intrinsic relaxation ...

We present an efficient strategy for on-surface engineering of organic metal-free supramolecular complexes with long-term spin protection. By vacuum deposition of azafullerene (C$_{59}$N$^•$) monomers on a pre-deposited template layer of [10]cycloparaphenylene ([10]CPP) nanohoops on Au(111) surface ...

We investigate the effect of introducing C$_{60}$ to (C$_{59}$N)$_2$ and the molecular ring, [10]cycloparaphenylene ([10]CPP), using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Incorporating C$_{60}$ into the system results in the for ...

A remarkable stability of a supramolecular radical comprising an azafullerene (C$_{59}$N$^•$) radical sterically protected by a [10]cycloparaphenylene ([10]CPP) nanoring, C$_{59}$N$^•$$\subset$[10]CPP, has recently been observed by various experimental probes. In order to investigate the host−guest ...
