Room-temperature spin injection from Fe into GaAs.
Injection of spin polarized electrons from a metal into a semiconductor is demonstrated for a GaAs/(In,Ga)As light emitting diode covered with Fe. The circular polarization degree of the observed electroluminescence reveals a spin injection efficiency of 2%. The underlying injection mechanism is explained in terms of a tunneling process.
متن کاملCORRIGENDUM: Room temperature electrical spin injection into GaAs by an oxide spin injector
Spin injection, manipulation and detection are the integral parts of spintronics devices and have attracted tremendous attention in the last decade. It is necessary to judiciously choose the right combination of materials to have compatibility with the existing semiconductor technology. Conventional metallic magnets were the first choice for injecting spins into semiconductors in the past. Here...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent asymmetry of the nonlocal spin-injection resistance: evidence for spin nonconserving interface scattering.
We report nonlocal spin injection and detection experiments on mesoscopic Co-Al2O3-Cu spin valves. We have observed a temperature-dependent asymmetry in the nonlocal resistance between parallel and antiparallel configurations of the magnetic injector and detector. This strongly supports the existence of a nonequilibrium resistance that depends on the relative orientation of the detector magneti...

متن کاملRoom-temperature spin thermoelectrics in metallic films
Considering metallic films at room temperature, we present the first theoretical study of the spin Nernst and thermal Edelstein effects that takes into account dynamical spin-orbit coupling, i.e., direct spin-orbit coupling with the vibrating lattice (phonons) and impurities. This gives rise to a novel process, namely, a dynamical side-jump mechanism, and to dynamical Elliott-Yafet spin relaxat...
