Ribeiro, Enrico Salvadori, Mario Chiesa, Niccolò Giaconi, Andrea Caneschi, Matteo Mannini, Lorenzo Poggini, Matteo Briganti, Giulia Serrano, Jaísa F. Soares, Roberta SessoliA comprehensive investigation shows that the replacement of a cyclopentadienyl ligand with fluorenyl increases the adsorption energy of the [FluTi(cot)] spin-qubit candidate on Au(111) without loss of spin density toward the surface.
