Abstract
Investigation of intermolecular electron spin interaction is of fundamental importance in both science and technology. Here, radical pairs of all-trans retinoic acid molecules on Au(111) are created using an ultralow temperature scanning tunneling microscope. Antiferromagnetic coupling between two radicals is identified by magnetic-field-dependent spectroscopy. The measured exchange energies are from 0.1 to 1.0 meV. The biradical spin coupling is mediated through O─H⋯O hydrogen bonds, as elucidated from analysis combining density functional theory calculation and a modern version of valence bond theory.

Abstract
This paper briefly reviewed the Heisenberg model and its improvement by including higher order corrections, and their applications to bond lengths, stability, and reactivity of non-benzenoids and the low-lying excitation spectra of conjugated systems. Two efficient computational methods, the Lanczos method and the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG), for exactly and approximately solving various Heisenberg models, respectively, were briefly introduced.
