Spin-dependent electron transport in protein-like single-helical molecules

Open access

Abstract

Significance: The control of electron spin transport in molecular systems has been receiving lots of attention among different scientific communities because of possible applications in spintronics and understanding of the spin effects in biological systems. Recent experiments have demonstrated that α-helical protein acts as an efficient spin filter and the chiral-induced spin selectivity may be a general phenomenon. However, no spin selectivity was measured in single-stranded DNA above the experimental noise. In the present study, we propose a physical model to rationalize the above phenomena, and provide an unambiguous physical mechanism for spin-selective phenomenon observed in α-helical protein and for the contradictory behaviors between protein and single-stranded DNA. These results may facilitate engineering of chiral-based spintronic devices.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
