摘要:

自旋电流--一种没有充电电流的电子自旋流--是电子设备中不受焦耳热影响的理想信息载体。著名的自旋霍尔效应,它产生于相对论自旋轨道耦合,使我们能够产生和检测自旋电流在无机材料和半导体,利用其组成重原子。相反,由具有轻元素的分子组成的有机材料被认为不适合于自旋电流的产生。在这里,我们表明,一类有机反铁磁体与棋盘型分子排列可以作为一个自旋电流发生器,通过施加一个热梯度或电场,即使自旋轨道耦合消失。我们的研究结果提供了另一种途径,以创建一个不同于传统的自旋霍尔效应的自旋电流,并打开了一个新的领域的自旋电子学的基础上有机磁体具有小的自旋散射和长寿命的优点。

英文摘要:

Spin current--a flow of electron spins without a charge current--is an ideal information carrier free from Joule heating for electronic devices. The celebrated spin Hall effect, which arises from the relativistic spin-orbit coupling, enables us to generate and detect spin currents in inorganic materials and semiconductors, taking advantage of their constituent heavy atoms. In contrast, organic materials consisting of molecules with light elements have been believed to be unsuited for spin current generation. Here we show that a class of organic antiferromagnets with checker-plate type molecular arrangements can serve as a spin current generator by applying a thermal gradient or an electric field, even with vanishing spin-orbit coupling. Our findings provide another route to create a spin current distinct from the conventional spin Hall effect and open a new field of spintronics based on organic magnets having advantages of small spin scattering and long lifetime.
