We discuss spin injection and spin valves, which are based on organic and biomols., that offer the possibility to overcome some of the limitations of solid-state devices, which are based on ferromagnetic metal electrodes. In particular, we discuss spin filtering through bacteriorhodopsin in a solid state biomol. spin valve that is based on the chirality induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect and shows a magnetoresistance of ∼2% at room temperature The device is fabricated using a layer of bacteriorhodopsin (treated with n-octyl-thioglucoside detergent: OTG-bR) that is adsorbed on a cysteamine functionalized gold electrode and capped with a magnesium oxide layer as a tunneling barrier, upon which a Ni top electrode film is placed and used as a spin analyzer. The bR based spin valves show an antisym. magnetoresistance response when a magnetic field is applied along the direction of the current flow, whereas they display a pos. sym. magnetoresistance curve when a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the current direction.
