Interplay of structural chirality, electron spin and topological orbital in chiral molecular spin valves

Abstract Chirality has been a property of central importance in physics, chemistry and biology for more than a century. Recently, electrons were found to become spin polarized after transmitting through chiral molecules, crystals, and their hybrids. This phenomenon, called chirality-induced spin sel...
