Cantilever torque magnetometry is used to elucidate the orientation of magnetic mole cules in thin films. The technique allows depth-resolved investigations by intercalating a layer of anisotropic magnetic mole cules in a film of its isotropic analogues. The proof-of-concept is here demon strated with the single-molecule magnet TbPc2 evidencing also an exceptional long-range templating effect on substrates coated by the organic molecule perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride.
