We investigate electron transport through a mixed-valence molecular complex in which an excess electron can tunnel between hetero-valent transition metal ions, each having a fixed localized spin. We show that in this class of molecules the…
Nonvolatile magnetotransport responses in a single magnetic material have generally not been expected to exhibit a large ON/OFF ratio, because they are usually tied to spin-orbit coupling and therefore remain relatively weak. Here we show,…
