Fe(100)–(borazine)n=1–4–Fe(100): a multifunctional spin diode with spin valve action

Abstract: Herein, we report that borazine (B3N3H6), alternatively known as inorganic benzene, has the tantalizing potential to act as a multifunctional molecular spin diode with a significantly large spin valve action. The present computational foray into the multifunctionality of (B3N3H6)n=1-4 as a simultaneous spin diode and spin valve has been rationalized by the current rectification ratio with a maximum value of 34 for the tetramer and large tunneling magneto-resistance in the range of 50-100%, respectively.

“…57,[66][67][68][69] Additionally, the coordination sphere of the metal ion can be easily modified allowing the inclusion of extra coordination points that makes possible the anchorage of the MMWs to surfaces and/or electrodes, expanding future perspectives in the design of spintronic devices. 70,71 On the other hand, the large acenes are not chemically very stable because of their open-shell character. However, this is not the case for those arising from an extension of them, acenes or cyclic-acenes, i.e.…”

“…However physical realization of a true spin filter accompanied with strong spin selective rectification action and low spin cross‐over field is hard area to pin down. Moreover, most of the hitherto reported spintronic system are transitional metals based and such systems have the disadvantages of low spin relaxation time and strong spin‐orbit interaction . Hence, a metal free magnetic material simultaneously showing high degree of filtration, rectification and switching is an area of further exploitation and need of modern spintronic industry.…”
