The Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity- Why it is so special?

Ron Naaman, Department of Chemical and Biological Physics, Weizmann Institute, Israel

The Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity (CISS) effect was first observed more than 25 years ago. Despite numerous experimental verifications across chemistry, physics, and biology, many feel that the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. This talk will address the question: what makes CISS fundamentally different from conventional electron transport? and will provide new insights into its mechanism. It will be demonstrated how chirality necessitates a fresh perspective on electron transfer and present experimental evidence for the key parameters that enable the CISS effect, challenging our conventional understanding of electronic transport phenomena.
