Fabrication of spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chains via combined on-surface synthesis and reduction for spinon detection - Nature Synthesis
Spin-1/2 Heisenberg chains are fabricated through on-surface synthesis and reduction. As the chain length increases, the spin excitation gaps decrease, suggesting a gapless state in the thermodynamic ...
