Research paperExperimental CharacterizationOptically Addressable Molecular Spins at 2D SurfacesXuankai Zhou, Yan-Tung Kong, Cheuk Kit Cheung, Guodong Bian et al.arXiv·2026·arXiv:2601.19988AbstractOptically addressable spin-active pentacene molecules are anchored onto hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) surfaces, demonstrating robust surface spin coherence from 4 K to room temperature. The hybrid molecular-2D platform yields long Hahn-echo coherence times, optical addressability, and sensitivity to proximal proton spins and 2D magnetic materials beneath the hBN layer.Read more
