Rashba interferometers: Spin-dependent single and two-electron interference
Quantum transport in semiconductor nanostructures can be described theoretically in terms of the propagation and scattering of electron probability waves. Within this approach, elements of a phase-coherent electric circuit play a role similar to quantumoptical devices that can be characterised by scattering matrices. Electronic analogues of well-know optical interferometers have been fabricated...
متن کاملSpin-dependent electron transport in protein-like single-helical molecules.
We report on a theoretical study of spin-dependent electron transport through single-helical molecules connected by two nonmagnetic electrodes, and explain the experiment of significant spin-selective phenomenon observed in α-helical protein and the contradictory results between the protein and single-stranded DNA. Our results reveal that the α-helical protein is an efficient spin filter and th...
متن کاملSpin-dependent hot electron transport in Co/Cu thin films
Hot-electron transport in Co/Cu/Co trilayer films has been studied in the energy range from 1.0 to 2.0 eV using ballistic electron magnetic microscopy. Both the spin-dependent attenuation lengths of Co and the cumulative polarizing effects of spin-dependent tunneling and transmission across a Co/Cu interface have been determined. For very thin (a few A) Co layers, the latter effects result in a...

متن کاملMolecular Spintronics: Spin-Dependent Electron Transport in Molecular Wires
We present a theoretical study of spin-dependent transport through molecular wires bridging ferromagnetic metal nanocontacts. We extend to magnetic systems a recently proposed model that provides a quantitative explanation of the conductance measurements of Reed et al. [1] on Au break-junctions bridged by self-assembled molecular monolayers (SAMs) of 1,4-benzene-dithiolate (BDT) molecules. Base...
