as its atomselectrical charges balance each other out across the plane. But curvature in graphene compresses the electron clouds of the bonds on the concave side and stretches them on the convex side,
a spintronic circuit needs a well-controlled source of spin-polarized electrons that are injected into a transport channel material,
it requires a transport channel material with long spin lifetimes because (polarized) spins fade away (i e.,
, become randomized) and lose their information during transport, unlike electric charges. Compared to manipulating populations of moving electrons through a conventional semiconductor,
and so is Alq3 for spin transport. Project Leader Christina Hacker elaborates: obalt surfaces are really interesting for electronic applications.
which is critical in electronic transport through the SAM and into the organic semiconductor. This finding suggests that the rapid oxidation of cobalt does not necessarily have to be a limiting factor in organic spintronics.
we need spin injection, spin transport, and spin detection, Jang explains. ur latest work with SAMS only concerns the interface relevant to the spin injection part.
The next step should be to find a better medium for spin transport since only short-distance couple of hundred nanometersf spin transport has been demonstrated in organic materials such as Alq3 so far.
There have been studies suggesting that long-distance spin transport in organics is achievable. Our grand plan is to make a whole device and show really long-distance (in this tiny device,
over a micrometer) spin transport through an organic semiconductor. r
