The chirality-induced spin selectivity effect in asymmetric spin transport: from solution to device applications.

The chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect has garnered significant interest in the field of molecular spintronics due to its potential to create spin-polarized electrons without the need for a magnet. Recent studies devoted to CISS effects in various chiral materials demonstrate exciting prospects for spintronics, chiral recognition, and quantum information applications. Several experimental studies have confirmed the applicability of chiral molecules in spin-filtering properties, influencing spin-polarized electron transport and photoemission. Researchers aim to predict CISS phenomena and apply this concept to practical applications by compiling experimental results. To expand the possibilities of spin manipulation and create new opportunities for spin-based technologies, researchers are diligently exploring different chiral organic and inorganic materials for probing the CISS effect. This ongoing research holds promise for developing novel spin-based technologies and advancing the understanding of the intricate relationship between chirality and electron spin. The review highlights the remarkable experimental and theoretical frameworks related to the CISS effect, its impact on spintronics, and its relevance in other scientific areas.
