Abstract
The emergence of π-magnetism in low-dimensional carbon-based nanostructures, such as nanographenes (NGs), has captured significant attention due to their unique properties and potential applications in spintronics and quantum technologies. Recent advancements in on-surface synthesis under ultra-high vacuum conditions have enabled the atomically precise engineering of these nanostructures, effectively overcoming the challenges posed by their inherent strong chemical reactivity. This review highlights the essential concepts and synthesis methodologies used in studying NGs. It also outlines the remarkable progress made in understanding and controlling their magnetic properties. Advanced characterization techniques, such as scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and non-contact atomic force microscopy (nc-AFM), have been instrumental in visualizing and manipulating these nanostructures, which highlighting their critical role in the field. The review underscores the versatility of carbon-based π-magnetic materials and their potential for integration into next-generation electronic devices. It also outlines future research directions aimed at optimizing their synthesis and exploring applications in cutting-edge technologies.
