Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states arise as a sub-gap excitations in a system of magnetic impurity coupled to a superconducting host. Despite the quantum nature of their spin degree of freedom, magnetic impurities in such systems are often described by a classical spin. Taking into account quantum nature of the impurity-spin has proven to give useful insights into the ground-state and excitation properties of the magnetic impurity-superconductor system.

Here, we report on the spectral properties of the YSR states of a magnetic impurity on a spin-split superconductor. Using the zero-bandwidth approximation we obtain the spectral function of the YSR states. Unlike the classical model which predicts full spin polarization for the YSR peaks, we find the quantum model predicts partial polarization. The parity-changing phase transition switches the spin polarization of the YSR peaks after crossing at the center of the superconducting gap. We discuss the possibility of using this effect as a tunable spin-filter in a quantum dot or a molecule in proximity to a spin-split superconductor.
