Abstract
Recent advances in the fascinating field of molecular-spintronics are briefly reviewed. These comprise studies of organic spin-valves, where magnetic electrodes sandwich a non-magnetic molecule, and of three-terminal junctions using magnetic molecules as the active element. The problems connected with interpreting the results and with extracting information about the spin-dynamics in organic materials are discussed.Keywords
