The difference in the density of states for up- and down-spin electrons in a ferromagnet (F) results in spin-dependent scattering of electrons at a ferromagnet / nonmagnetic (F/N) interface. In a F/N/F spin-valve, this causes a…
We study the proximity effects near the interface between a d-wave superconductor (S) and a ferromagnet (F) or an antiferromagnet (AF). The S-side (F and AF-side) is described by the attractive (repulsive) Hubbard model, and the Bogoliubov…
Spin-splitting induced in a conventional superconductor weakens superconductivity by destroying spin-singlet and creating spin-triplet Cooper pairs. We demonstrate theoretically that such an effect is also caused by an adjacent compensated…
