Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) generates spin-polarized currents in nonmagnetic materials from structural chirality alone, yet its microscopic origin remains debated. Using a first-principles spatiotemporal density-matrix…

The theoretical explanation for the chiral-induced spin selectivity effect, in which electrons' passage through a chiral system depends on their spin and the handedness of the system, remains vague. Although most experimental work was…

We consider spin injection driven by nonequilibrium chiral phonons from a chiral insulator into an adjacent metal. Phonon-spin conversion arises from the coupling of the electron spin with the microrotation associated with chiral phonons.…
