Chirality-Induced Spin Selectivity in an Achiral Electron Donor–Acceptor Molecule Doped into a Cholesteric Liquid Crystal
formation in the cholesteric phase of 5CB/R811 and 5CB/S811. These results demonstrate that CISS can be effectively induced by supramolecular chirality transfer in SCRPs that lack intrinsic molecular chirality; thus expanding the potential use of CISS for QIS applications.
