有机自旋电子器件中有机材料结构和界面结构的调控

Spintronics is a promising and exciting field which enables the achievement of high-performance and low power-consuming electronic devices combining the memory and logic operation. Pi-conjugated molecular and polymeric materials, which exhibit exceptionally low degree of spin scattering, are the excellent candidates as the medium of spin transport. In this project, we will utilize the organic semiconductors with different molecular structures as the spacer in the organic spin valves (SV). By establishing the well-defined conditions of film preparation, the comprehensive investigation will be performed on the role of structural ordering and the defect states of the organic spacers as well as the structural factors of the organic/magnetic electrode interface on spin injection and transport as well as the magnetoresistance (MR) of the organic SVs. The study will also be performed to unveil the interplays between the structure (and trap states) of organic spacers, the mechanism of carrier transport and the mechanism controlling spin transport. It is to explore new physics and shed a new light on some of puzzles related to the structural aspects in organic spintronics. In addition, we will actively engineer the structure of the organic spacers and the organic/electrode interfaces by the novel methods. The efforts will be made to search the effective approaches 1)to manipulate the efficiency and process of the spin injection and transport; 2) to achieve high MR of the organic spin valves and 3) to improve the device reproducibility. The research proposed in the project will be of high significance to get a deeper insight on the mechanism of spin injection and transport in organic semiconductors as well as to develop the novel high-performance spintronic device
