fields has been very limited. In this review, we compile the two “languages” in an effort to enhance communication. We expect that knowledge of spin chemistry will accelerate progress in spintronics.

interpreted in terms of transient non-Boltzmann magnetization and called chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) and chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (photo-CIDNP). The theoretical description by Kaptein and Oosterhoff [6] as well as by Closs [7] in 1969 established spin
chemistry as a new field, which was initially mainly run by physical organic chemists as well as EPR and NMR spectroscopists. The discovery of CIDEP and CIDNP was followed by reports of MFE [8][9] on chemical reactions and MIE [10][11]. All these effects originate from the spin-conserving nature of most
