Using density functional theory, we have investigated the electronic and magnetic properties of finite-size as well as infinitely periodic organometallic vanadium-borazine systems for their possible applications in spintronics devices. From our calculations, we find the finite-size vanadium-borazine systems to be structurally more stable in comparison to their isoelectronic benzene counterparts. All the finite-size vanadium-borazine systems are found to be ferromagnetically stabilized, with the infinite one-dimensional wire exhibiting robust half-metallic behaviour. The finite-size clusters are also found to exhibit efficient spin filter properties when coupled to graphene electrodes.
