Abstract
The charge transport through a single benzene-1,4-dithiolate molecule embedded in an inert matrix of insulating alkanethiol molecules and sandwiched between ferromagnetic electrodes is studied as a function of magnetic field. Electronic transport through the device structure shows a pronounced spin valve behavior and a giant magnetoresistive effect exceeding 30% at room temperature. The result demonstrates the possibility of using the spin degree of freedom in molecular-based devices.
