Abstract

A single organic spin platform hosts both dimerized S=12S=\tfrac{1}{2} and effective Haldane S=1S=1 sectors, linked by bond-texture inversion. At the junction, the fractional mode is controlled by termination parity: quenched by local fusion at one termination and released as an uncompensated spin-12\tfrac{1}{2}-like degree of freedom at the parity-shifted one. Two such internal boundary modes of a finite embedded Haldane domain hybridize with an exponentially decaying splitting, establishing termination parity as a design principle for engineering and coupling fractional boundary modes.
