Single electron spintronics.
Single electron electronics is now well developed, and allows the manipulation of electrons one-by-one as they tunnel on and off a nanoscale conducting island. In the past decade or so, there have been concerted efforts in several laboratories to construct single electron devices incorporating ferromagnetic components in order to introduce spin functionality. The use of ferromagnetic electrodes...
متن کاملSpintronics: electron spin coherence, entanglement, and transport
The prospect of building spintronic devices in which electron spins store and transport information has attracted strong attention in recent years. Here we present some of our representative theoretical results on three fundamental aspects of spintronics: spin coherence, spin entanglement, and spin transport. In particular, we discuss our detailed quantitative theory for spin relaxation and coh...
متن کاملMolecular Spintronics: Spin-Dependent Electron Transport in Molecular Wires
We present a theoretical study of spin-dependent transport through molecular wires bridging ferromagnetic metal nanocontacts. We extend to magnetic systems a recently proposed model that provides a quantitative explanation of the conductance measurements of Reed et al. [1] on Au break-junctions bridged by self-assembled molecular monolayers (SAMs) of 1,4-benzene-dithiolate (BDT) molecules. Base...
متن کاملQuantifying the critical thickness of electron hybridization in spintronics materials
In the rapidly growing field of spintronics, simultaneous control of electronic and magnetic properties is essential, and the perspective of building novel phases is directly linked to the control of tuning parameters, for example, thickness and doping. Looking at the relevant effects in interface-driven spintronics, the reduced symmetry at a surface and interface corresponds to a severe modifi...
