Our work on the "Individual Assembly of Radical Molecules on Superconductors: Demonstrating Quantum Spin Behavior and Bistable Charge Rearrangement" by Chao Li et al. is accepted in ACS Nano. We show the charge (spin) state control in dimers and short molecular chains by tip manipulation. Tunneling spectra at 1 K reveal Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states near the Fermi energy in isolated radical molecules and their coupling in these nanostructures.
