Summary: Research on organic single crystals grown on a liquid substrate and used to construct single-crystalline OSVs revealed high magnetoresistance responses and spin transport properties. A magnetoresistance value as high as 17% was measured with an intermediate layer thickness of 269 nm. Spin transport was observed in single crystals up to a thickness of 457 nm, much larger than that of polycrystalline thin films.

Summary: The study presents a simple and effective method to achieve nonvolatile memory in organic spin valves by doping the organic interlayer, which introduces traps and affects charge and spin transport. The doped organic spin valves exhibit current-voltage hysteresis and reversible resistive switching behavior, indicating successful achievement of nonvolatile memory. The trap-controlled space-charge-limited current model explains the memory effect of the doped devices, while spin diffusion theory based on hyperfine interaction can also explain the corresponding magnetoresistance changes under different resistance states.

Summary: An alternative approach to charge-based electronics is to use the spin degree of freedom for information communication and processing. Graphene, with its long spin-diffusion length at room temperature, shows promise for highly scalable spintronics. The development of graphene spin valves has paved the way for spin devices in graphene, such as spin field-effect transistors and spin majority logic gates. This review examines the progress in graphene spin valves and their role in advancing spin logic devices, discussing different transport mechanisms and comparing the energy efficiency between graphene spin valves and charge-based field-effect transistors.

Summary: Experimental evidence of spin absorption orientation dependence in ferromagnetic materials is provided, facilitating the quantification of spin-mixing conductance. The obtained values suggest a limitation by the Sharvin conductance, challenging traditional models based solely on Larmor, transverse decoherence, and spin diffusion lengths.

Summary: This article summarizes the basic operating principle and mechanism of organic spin valves (OSVs) and discusses the importance of accomplishing room-temperature spin transport, FM electrode selection, and spinterface. The state-of-the-art progress of organic semiconductors (OSCs) with room-temperature spin transport in spin valves is reviewed. Furthermore, the effects of carrier mobility and spin relaxation time on the spin diffusion length are systematically analyzed. A feasible perspective for improving the spin transport properties of OSCs is presented.

Summary: In this study, an innovative spin-filtering-competition mechanism is proposed to continuously modulate the interfacial effect in molecular spin valves at room temperature. By precisely controlling lithium fluoride coverage on the cobalt surface, continuous modulation of the spin-injection process can be successfully achieved, allowing active control of spin polarization of the injected current and magnetoresistance effect.

Summary: This study reports the spin-triplet supercurrent spin valves in chiral antiferromagnetic Josephson junctions and a direct-current superconducting quantum interference device. By utilizing the Berry curvature-induced fictitious magnetic fields and the non-collinear atomic-scale spin arrangement, long-range triplet Cooper pairing is achieved in the chiral antiferromagnet Mn3Ge. The observed supercurrent spin-valve behaviors under a small magnetic field and the direct-current superconducting quantum interference device functionality are theoretically verified.

Summary: The authors demonstrate ultrafast magnetization reversal induced by light in rare-earth-free spin valves of [Pt/Co]/Cu/[Co/Pt] within a picosecond. The discovery of spin-transfer torque (STT) allowed the control of magnetization direction in nanoseconds using electrical current. Ultrashort optical pulses have been used to manipulate the magnetization of ferrimagnets in picoseconds by driving the system out of equilibrium. In this study, the authors show ultrafast magnetization reversal induced by light in commonly used [Pt/Co]/Cu/[Co/Pt] spin valves for STT switching, bridging concepts from spintronics and ultrafast magnetism.

Summary: Esophagitis caused by Herpes Simplex virus is a recognized opportunistic infection in immunocompromised or severely ill hosts, but is uncommon in immunocompetent hosts. It typically responds well to a course of acyclovir. In this case, a young female without other immunocompromised states presented with severe dysphagia, was diagnosed endoscopically and histopathologically, and recovered well after treatment with acyclovir.

Summary: We report a case of a 29-year-old immunocompetent female who presented with intermittent headache and vomiting and was ultimately diagnosed with cryptococcal meningitis (CM). Despite atypical neuroimaging findings, CM was confirmed by cryptococcal antigen test. Contrary to the good prognosis reported in literature, the patient died during hospitalization. Therefore, cryptococcosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis, even in immunocompetent individuals presenting with meningitis-like symptoms, to prevent the worst clinical outcome.
