Molecular or organic spintronics is an emerging research field at the frontier between organic chemistry and spintronics. The manuscript is divided into three parts, the first of which introduces the basic concepts of spintronics and advantages that molecules can bring to this field. The state of the art on organic and molecular spintronics is also presented, with a special emphasis on the physics and experimental evidence for spinterfaces. The book's second and third parts are dedicated to the two main experimental topics investigated in the thesis: Self-Assembled Monolayers (SAMs) and Organic Semiconductors (OSCs). The study of SAMs-based magnetic tunnel nanojunctions reveals the potential to modulate the properties of such devices at will, since each part of the molecule can be tuned independently like a LEGO building block. The study of Alq3-based spin valves reveals magnetoresistance effects at room temperature and is aimed at understanding the respective roles played by the two interfaces. Through the development of these systems, we demonstrate their potential for spintronics and provide a solid foundation for spin polarization engineering at the molecular level. 000752156 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 23, 2015) 000752156 650_0 $$aSpintronics$$xResearch. 000752156 650_0 $$aChemistry, Organic. 000752156 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGalbiati, Marta$$tMolecular Spintronics : From Organic Semiconductors to Self-Assembled Monolayers$$dCham : Springer International Publishing,c2015$$z9783319226101 000752156 830_0 $$aSpringer theses. 000752156 852__ $$bebk 000752156 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-22611-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000752156 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:752156$$pGLOBAL_SET 000752156 980__ $$aEBOOK 000752156 980__ $$aBIB 000752156 982__ $$aEbook 000752156 983__ $$aOnline 000752156 994__ $$a92$$bISE
