Symmetry mediated tunable molecular magnetism on a 2D material

Symmetry is key for magnetism of molecules as well as other nanostructures. Here, the authors tune the magnetic moment of a metal-organic molecule deposited on NbSe2 via the adsorption symmetry, and observe a non-collinear intramolecular spin-spin interaction.
