Abstract Multiple-effect molecular devices have been constructed by single molecule magnet Mn(dmit)2 and phosphorene electrodes. First-principle quantum transport calculations show that the devices present excellent spin-filtering, spin-switching and negative differential resistance effects, which can be explained by the frontier molecular orbitals, the projected density of states and evolution of the transmission spectra. These excellent spin transport properties are better than the performance of the devices constructed by Au or graphene electrodes, which suggest that the one-dimensional devices with phosphorene electrodes are promising candidates for future applications of phosphorene-based multi-functional spintronics devices.
