Rare-earth based SMMs are promising candidates for magnetic information storage as their large magnetic moments are carried by localized 4f electrons. However, this in turn hampers a direct readout of the moment. Here, we present the indirect readout of the Dy moment in DyPc2 molecules on Au(111) using mK-STM. Because of an unpaired electron on the Pc ligand, the molecules show a Kondo resonance that is, however, split by the ferromagnetic exchange interaction between the unpaired electron and the Dy spin. Using spin-polarized STS, we read out the Dy spin as a function of the applied magnetic field, exploiting the spin polarization of the exchange-split Kondo state.
