Vibronic response of a spin-1/2 state from a carbon impurity in two-dimensional WS$_2$

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Katherine A. Cochrane, Jun-Ho Lee, Christoph Kastl, Jonah B. Haber, Tianyi Zhang | Summary: We demonstrate the creation of a spin-1/2 state via the atomically controlled generation of magnetic carbon radical ions (CRIs) in synthetic two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Hydrogenated carbon impurities located at chalcogen […]
