40. The nanosample used in the magnetic-susceptibility measurement in Fig. was prepared by ball milling for 30 h in H 2 (1 %) / Ar gas. Another sample milled for 50 h in air, that was used in SR-XRD experiments, showed an almost identical result.

The energy splitting due to the π bonding is roughly determined by 2 √ V p d π 2 + V 3 2 in using the diatomic molecule model, where V 3 denotes the polar energy.
