随着自旋电子学和分子电子学这两个新学科的当代发展,电子学的一场革命即将到来。这两个领域之间的基本联系可以使用分子磁性材料,特别是单分子磁体来建立。在这里,我们回顾了第一个进展,在由此产生的领域,分子自旋电子学,这将使操纵自旋和电荷的电子器件包含一个或多个分子。我们讨论了与传统材料相比的优势,以及在信息存储和处理方面的潜在应用。我们还概述了目前在该领域的挑战,并提出方便的计划来克服它们。
A revolution in electronics is in view, with the contemporary evolution of the two novel disciplines of spintronics and molecular electronics. A fundamental link between these two fields can be established using molecular magnetic materials and, in particular, single-molecule magnets. Here, we review the first progress in the resulting field, molecular spintronics, which will enable the manipulation of spin and charges in electronic devices containing one or more molecules. We discuss the advantages over more conventional materials, and the potential applications in information storage and processing. We also outline current challenges in the field, and propose convenient schemes to overcome them.
