Figure 1: Schematic of the chip carrier.
From: Spin doping using transition metal phthalocyanine molecules
Chip carrier with two Hall bars. The left bar refers to the Au/MPc/Au stack, and the right bar to the bare-gold control reference. The reference device provided the baseline to assess the gold quality of the different devices fabricated. The excitation current is injected along the bar, with two sensing contacts measuring the voltage drop. Inset: molecular structure of the transition metal M=Cu, Co, Ni (II) phthalocyanine complex. Transition metal (golden) ligands to nitrogen atoms (blue) result in total spin angular momentum of S=½, ½ and 0 for the cases of CuPc, CoPc and NiPc, respectively. Carbon atoms are represented in grey and hydrogen atoms in white.
