2D MOFs constitute a new class of designer materials where the coexistence of Dirac electrons and flat bands can lead to rich physical phenomena and to the realization of quantum phases such as topological or quantum anomalous Hall insulators.
Following the concepts of coordination chemistry, based on a surface-assisted self-assembly of the metal and organic components, we have carried out synthesis of Iron-hexaiminotriphenylene (HITP) MOFs on Au(111) substrate and characterized their electronic structure using scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (STS). On the other hand, ab-initio calculations of the observed structures indicate the presence of strong ferromagnetic interactions that persist under the influence of the Au substrate, indicating that the interaction with the Au substrate stabilizes even further the FM state on Fe3(HITP)2. We relate such strong magnetic interactions to the formation of a radical spin at the ligand that mediate the inter-ionic interactions.
