Parity-dependent coupling of molecular spin chains to a superconductor

Nature, Published online: 14 October 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-11117-y Scanning tunnelling spectroscopy shows that the fractional spin-1/2 end states of molecular Haldane chains couple differently to a superconducting condensate depending on whether the chain contains an even or odd number of…
