NO2-modified system reveals that the on-top ligation leads to a reduction of the nickel center. Remarkably, the nickel center in NO2-NiTPP/Cu(100) has a d 8 configuration with two unpaired electrons, which is [...] inorganic materials for many technological devices. When put into contact with a metal electrode, the hybridization of molecular orbitals and metallic states can lead to several intriguing effects, which strongly [...] observation as the point of departure, this thesis aims to develop different approaches to alter the hybridization at this interface. The results of this thesis can be divided into three main topics. First, it …
