We generalize the recently proposed steady-state density functional theory (SS-DFT) to spin-dependent cases and theoretically investigate the electronic and transport properties of a Mn-phthalocyanine molecule sandwiched between two graphene nanoribbon leads. The junction filters spin-up (minority spin) electrons while allowing spin-down (majority spin) electrons to pass with a filtering efficiency of about 99.5% at low biases. The spin-down electrons are found to tunnel through the junction via the HOMO orbital of the Mn-phthalocyanine molecule. Detailed analysis of the spin-dependent electron tunneling mechanism as well as the electronic/magnetic properties of the junction is presented.

Ground- and excited-states properties of N2200 have been studied by steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopies as well as time-dependent density functional theory calculations.
