Modeling the effects of molecule distortion on the Kondo resonance in the conductance of CoPc/Au(111) and TBrPP-Co/Cu(111)

Recent scanning tunneling microscope (STM) experimental studies on transport through CoPc and TBrPP-Co molecules adsorbed on metallic surfaces have reported several interesting results: (i) a high Kondo temperature as compared to those of adsorbed undressed magnetic atoms, (ii) the Kondo resonance s...
