Efficient Transfer of Chirality in Complex Hybrid Materials and Impact on Chirality-induced Spin Selectivity.

ABSTRACT: Transfer of chirality, or transmission of asymmetric information from one system to another, plays an essential role in fundamental biological and chemical processes and, therefore, is essential for life. This phenomenon also holds immense potential in spintronics in the context of chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS). In the CISS, the spatial arrangement of chiral molecules influences the spin state of electrons during the charge-transfer processes. Transfer of chirality from chiral molecules to an achiral material in a hybrid environment enables induction of spin polarization in the achiral material, thus vastly expanding the library of CISS-active electronic materials. Such "induced" CISS signals could have different responses compared to pure chiral molecules because the electroni
