By using electrospray ion beam as a soft deposition method in ultra-high vacuum, we were able to organize Fe4 SMMs in a highly regular superstructure on hexagonal boron nitride/Rh(111) [1] and graphene/Ir(111) templates, as evidenced by scanning tunneling microscopy measurements. On both these substrates Fe4 SMMs lay on the surface with a well-defined flat geometry, corresponding to a homogeneous out-of-plane orientation of the magnetization easy axis of the molecules. Through x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements on those systems, we revealed that the magnetic anisotropy of SMMs can be deeply influenced by the choice of the substrate.
