Program | Optical and magnetic phenomena at molecules-metal interfaces Abstract: Illuminated molecular junctions bring together a rich phenomenology involving the interplay between electron and energy transfer, plasmon-exciton interactions and spin transfer processes. Theoretical studies of several recently observed phenomena will be presented. In particular I will describe an analysis of recent observations of Raman scattering from molecular junctions and discuss possible mechanisms for spin filtering in photoemission through monolayers of chiral molecules.
