Electron Spin Polarization as a Predictor of Chiroptical Activity in Helical Molecules
Solmar Varela, Rafael Gutierrez, Gianaurelio Cuniberti +2
Chiral structures, breaking spatial inversion symmetry, exhibit non-zero chiroptical activity (COA) due to the interaction between their electric and magnetic responses under exter…
Spin polarization induced by decoherence in a tunneling one-dimensional Rashba model
S. Varela, M. Peralta, V. Mujica +2
Basic questions on the nature of spin polarization in two terminal systems and the way in which decoherence breaks Time-Reversal Symmetry (TRS) are analyzed. We exactly solve sever…
Theory of Chirality Induced Spin Selectivity: Progress and Challenges
Ferdinand Evers, Amnon Aharony, Nir Bar-Gill +19
We provide a critical overview of the theory of the chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect, i.e., phenomena in which the chirality of molecular species imparts significan…
The contribution of intermolecular spin interactions to the London dispersion forces between chiral molecules
M. Geyer, R. Gutierrez, V. Mujica +3
Dispersion interactions are one of the components of van der Waals (vdW) forces, which play a key role in the understanding of intermolecular interactions in many physical, chemica…
Multiscale Thermodynamics: Energy, Entropy, and Symmetry from Atoms to Bulk Behavior
Ralph V. Chamberlin, Michael R. Clark, Vladimiro Mujica +1
Here we investigate how local properties of particles in a thermal bath influence the thermodynamics of the bath. We utilize nanothermodynamics, based on two postulates: that small…
Role of Exchange Interactions in the Magnetic Response and Intermolecular Recognition of Chiral Molecules
Arezoo Dianat, Rafael Gutierrez, Hen Alpern +6
The physical origin of the so-called chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect has puzzled experimental and theoretical researchers over the past few years. Early experiment…
