We demonstrated that the spin injection/extraction efficiency is enhanced by an ultrathin Mg insertion layer (<= 2 nm) in Fe/Mg/MgO/n+-Si tunnel junctions. In diode-type vertical three-terminal devices fabricated on a Si substrate, we…

We propose a spin-dependent resonant tunneling structure to efficiently inject spin-polarized current into silicon (Si). By means of a heavily doped polycrystalline Si (Poly-Si) between the ferromagnetic metal (FM) and Si to reduce the…

We study theoretically spin transport through a single-molecule magnet (SMM) in the sequential and cotunneling regimes, where the SMM is weakly coupled to one ferromagnetic and one normalmetallic leads. By a master-equation approach, it is…

Although the creation of spin polarization in various non-magnetic media via electrical spin injection from a ferromagnetic tunnel contact has been demonstrated, much of the basic behavior is heavily debated. It is reported here for…

In this letter, we show efficient electrical spin injection into a SiGe based \textit{p-i-n} light emitting diode from the remanent state of a perpendicularly magnetized ferromagnetic contact. Electron spin injection is carried out through…

We report on the spin-polarized electron injection through an Fe(100)/InAs(100) junction. The circularly polarized electroluminescence of injected electrons from epitaxially grown Fe thin film into InAs(100) in an external magnetic field is…

We demonstrate that information can be transmitted and processed with pure spin currents in silicon. Fe/Al2O3 tunnel barrier contacts are used to produce significant electron spin polarization in the silicon, generating a spin current which…

The injection of spin polarized electrons from ferromagnetic metals (Fe and Co) into gallium nitride (GaN) via scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is demonstrated. Electrons from STM tips are injected into the semiconductor. Net circular…

Implementing spin functionalities in Si, and understanding the fundamental processes of spin injection and detection, are the main challenges in spintronics. Here we demonstrate large spin polarizations at room temperature, 34% in n-type…

We have experimentally and theoretically investigated the spin injection/detection polarization in a Si-based ferromagnetic tunnel junction with an amorphous MgO layer, and demonstrated that the experimental features of the spin…

A longitudinal electric field is used to control the transit time (through an undoped silicon vertical channel) of spin-polarized electrons precessing in a perpendicular magnetic field. Since an applied voltage determines the final spin…

We have studied the spin transport characteristics of a spin metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (spin MOSFET), particularly the bias voltage dependence of the electron spin polarization P_S in Si and the magnetoresistance…

We demonstrate spin polarized tunneling from Fe through a SiO2 tunnel barrier into a Si n-i-p heterostructure. Transport measurements indicate that single step tunneling is the dominant transport mechanism. The circular polarization, Pcirc,…

In order to enhance spin injection efficiency from ferromagnetic (FM) metal into a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), we introduce another FM metal and two tunnel barriers (I) between them to investigate the current polarization in such…

We report electrical spin injection from a ferromagnetic metal contact into a semiconductor light emitting diode structure with an injection efficiency of 30% which persists to room temperature. The Schottky barrier formed at the Fe/AlGaAs…

We have experimentally and theoretically investigated the spin transport in Fe/Mg/MgO/MgAl2O4/n+-Si(001) ferromagnetic tunnel junctions on a Si substrate, by systematically varying the thickness combination of amorphous MgO and MgAl2O4…

We consider electron tunneling from a nonmagnetic $n$-type semiconductor ($n$-S) into a ferromagnet (FM) through a very thin forward-biased Schottky barrier resulting in efficient extraction of electron spin from a thin $n$-S layer near…

We have experimentally and theoretically investigated the electron spin transport and spin distribution at room temperature in a Si two-dimensional (2D) inversion channel of back-gate-type spin metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect…

We suggest a consistent microscopic theory of spin injection from a ferromagnet (FM) into a semiconductor (S). It describes tunneling and emission of electrons through modified FM-S Schottky barrier with an ultrathin heavily doped…

In semiconductor spintronic devices, the semiconductor is usually lightly doped and nondegenerate, and moderate electric fields can dominate the carrier motion. We recently derived a drift-diffusion equation for spin polarization in the…
