Chiral molecule (8 × 6) in contact with a ferromagnetic surface. (a, b) Spin-resolved charge distribution for a molecule with (a) positive and (b) negative helicity. (c) Corresponding spin-polarization per site in the chiral molecule, for (blue) positive (+) and (red) negative (−) helicity. (d) Difference ⟨m_z⟩₊ – ⟨m_z⟩_– between the spin-polarizations for positive and negative helicity. (e, f) Charge and spin polarizations P_z and M_z, respectively, as a function of the number of sites, for positive (open symbols) and negative (filled symbols) helicity. Here, p = 0.1 and T = 300 K, while other parameters are as shown in Figure 2.
