“…It was found that these frequencies depend on the ionic radius of the rare-earth complexes. 26,27 Since all Raman modes of the TbPc 2 molecule followed the same behavior in our experiments, the most intense band (M) was used for the Raman maps. As presented in Figure 2a, the spatially resolved Raman map of TbPc 2 molecules precisely matches the graphene G band map (Figure 2b), while no TbPc 2 Raman signal is detectable on the silicon substrate.…”

We report the preparation and characterization of monolayer graphene decorated with functionalized single-molecule magnets (SMMs). The grafting ligands provide a homogeneous and selective deposition on graphene. The grafting is characterized by combined Raman microspectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and electron transport measurements. We observe a surface-enhanced Raman signal that allowed us to study the grafting down to the limit of a few isolated molecules. The weak interaction through charge transfer is in agreement with ab initio DFT calculations. Our results indicate that both molecules and graphene are essentially intact and the interaction is driven by van der Waals forces.
