摘要
Owing to the bistable character of the single molecular magnet (SMM), it can generate 100% spin-polarized currents even connected with normal (N) leads. In this work, we study the phonon-assisted spin current in N- SMM-N systems. We mainly focus on the interplay of SMM's bistable character and electron-phonon coupling. It is found that when SMM is trapped in one of the lowest bistable states, it can generate phonon-assisted spin- polarized currents. At the up-spin transport channel, it is accompanied by a phonon-assisted up-spin current, while at the down-spin transport channel, it is accompanied by a phonon-assisted down-spin current.
