Electronic statistics-on-demand: bunching, anti-bunching, positive and negative correlations in a molecular spin-valve
arXiv:2103.07618 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.103.205408
Abstract
One of the long-standing goals of quantum transport is to use the noise, rather than the average current, for information processing. However, achieving this requires on-demand control of quantum fluctuations in the electric current. In this paper, we demonstrate theoretically that transport through a molecular spin-valve provides access to many different statistics of electron tunneling events. Simply by changing highly tunable parameters, such as electrode spin-polarization, magnetization angle, and voltage, one is able to switch between Poisson behavior, bunching and anti-bunching of electron tunnelings, and positive and negative temporal correlations. The molecular spin-valve is modeled by a single spin-degenerate molecular orbital with local electronic repulsion coupled to two ferromagnetic leads with magnetization orientations allowed to rotate relative to each other. The electron transport is described via Born-Markov master equation and fluctuations are studied with higher-order waiting time distributions. For highly magnetized parallel-aligned electrodes, we find that strong positive temporal correlations emerge in the voltage range where the second transport channel is partially open. These are caused by a spin-induced electron-bunching, which does not manifest in the stationary current alone.
