Chiral spintronics

SH Yang, R Naaman, Y Paltiel, SSP Parkin - Nature Reviews Physics, 2021 - nature.com
As spins move through a chiral electric field, the resulting spin current can acquire chirality
through a spin–orbit interaction. Such spin currents are highly useful in creating spin–orbit …

Chiral molecules and the electron spin

R Naaman, Y Paltiel, DH Waldeck - Nature Reviews Chemistry, 2019 - nature.com
The electron's spin is essential to the stability of matter, and control over the spin opens up
avenues for manipulating the properties of molecules and materials. The Pauli exclusion …

Theory of chiral induced spin selectivity

S Dalum, P Hedegård - Nano letters, 2019 - ACS Publications
A general theory of the chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is presented. It is based
on the fact that the spin–orbit (SO) coupling is small, a few meV, for the light atoms, which …

A Vilan, D Cahen - Chemical reviews, 2017 - ACS Publications
Inserting molecular monolayers within metal/semiconductor interfaces provides one of the
most powerful expressions of how minute chemical modifications can affect electronic …

The electron's spin and molecular chirality–how are they related and how do they affect life processes?

K Michaeli, N Kantor-Uriel, R Naaman… - Chemical Society …, 2016 - pubs.rsc.org
The recently discovered chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect gives rise to a spin
selective electron transmission through biomolecules. Here we review the mechanism …

Charge redistribution and spin polarization driven by correlation induced electron exchange in chiral molecules

J Fransson - Nano Letters, 2021 - ACS Publications
Chiral induced spin selectivity is a phenomenon that has been attributed to chirality, spin–
orbit interactions, and nonequilibrium conditions, while the role of electron exchange and …

Vibrational origin of exchange splitting and” chiral-induced spin selectivity

J Fransson - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
Electron exchange and correlations emerging from the coupling between ionic vibrations
and electrons are addressed. Spin-dependent electron-phonon coupling originates from the …

Chirality-induced spin polarization places symmetry constraints on biomolecular interactions

A Kumar, E Capua, MK Kesharwani… - Proceedings of the …, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
Noncovalent interactions between molecules are key for many biological processes.
