We report spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy measurements of the Kondo effect observed in mirror twin boundaries of MoS2 on graphene, which are consistent with numerical renormalization group calculations. A Kondo resonance appears because the magnetic moment of a singly occupied quantum confined state of the mirror twin boundary is screened by the conduction electrons from the substrate [1]. Using a spin-polarized tip, we measure the Kondo resonance and the singly and doubly occupied confined levels simultaneously, characterizing the full Anderson system. Clear changes in the peak heights of the confined states as well as the magnetic field-split Kondo state provide evidence of their full spin polarization. The magnetization of the confined level as a function of magnetic field and temperature can be described as single quantum spin. This, along with the absence of any higher spin excitations, establishes the mirror twin boundary of MoS2 as an ideal spin 1/2 system.
