We consider a thin-film normal metal/superconductor junction in the presence of an externally applied in-plane magnetic field for several symmetries of the superconducting order parameter. For p-wave superconductors, a strongly…
A theory of spin-polarized transport in inhomogeneous magnetic semiconductors is developed and applied to magnetic/nonmagnetic p-n junctions. Several phenomena with possible spintronic applications are predicted, including spinvoltaic…
We investigate transport properties of junctions between two spin-split superconductors linked by a spin-polarized tunneling barrier. The spin-splitting fields in the superconductors (S) are induced by adjacent ferromagnetic insulating (FI)…
We analyze the broad range of spin-dependent nonequilibrium transport properties of hybrid systems composed of a normal region tunnel coupled to two superconductors with exchange fields induced by the proximity to thin ferromagnetic layers…
We propose the idea of a "spinguide", i.e. the semiconductor channel which is surrounded with walls from the diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) with the giant Zeeman splitting which are transparent for electrons with the one spin…
In the spin energy excitation mode of normal metals and superconductors, spin up and down electrons (or quasiparticles) carry different heat currents. This mode occurs only when spin up and down energy distribution functions are…
A theory of spin polarized tunneling spectroscopy based on a scattering theory is given for tunneling junctions between ferromagnets and d-wave superconductors. The spin filtering effect of an exchange field in the insulator is also…
We present a theoretical study of the effect of spin-filtering on the Josephson and dissipative quasiparticle currents in a superconducting tunnel junction. By combining the quasiclassical Green's functions and the tunneling Hamiltonian…
We study the spin and charge accumulation in junctions between a superconductor and a ferromagnet or a normal metal in the presence of a Zeeman magnetic field, when the junction is taken out of equilibrium by applying a voltage bias. We…
We theoretically study nonequilibrium spin transport in a superconducting wire connected by tunnel junctions to two ferromagnetic metal wires, each of which serves as an injector or detector of spin-polarized electron current. We present a…
A superconductor with a spin-split excitation spectrum behaves as an ideal ferromagnetic spin-injector in a tunneling junction. It was theoretical predicted that the combination of two such spin-split superconductors with independently…
We present a theoretical study of the quasiparticle and subgap conductance of generic $X/I_{sf}/S_{M}$ junction with a spin-filter barrier $I_{sf}$, where $X$ is either a normal $N$ or a ferromagnetic metal $F$ and $S_{M}$ is a…
We have measured the tunnelling current in Nb/Nb$_x$O$_y$/Ni planar tunnel junctions at different temperatures. The junctions are in the intermediate transparency regime. We have extracted the current polarization of the metal/ferromagnet…
We show that spin polarization of electrons in nonmagnetic semiconductors near specially tailored ferromagnet-semiconductor junctions can achieve 100%. This effect is realized even at moderate spin injection coefficients of the contact when…
We show that a huge thermoelectric effect can be observed by contacting a superconductor whose density of states is spin-split by a Zeeman field with a ferromagnet with a non-zero polarization. The resulting thermopower exceeds $k_B/e$ by a…
We investigate the charge and spin transport in half-metallic ferromagnet ($F$) and superconductor ($S$) nanojunctions. We utilize a self-consistent microscopic method that can accommodate the broad range of energy scales present, and…
Semiconductor point contacts can be a useful tool for producing spin-polarized currents in the presence of spin-orbit (SO) interaction. Neither magnetic fields nor magnetic materials are required. By numerical studies, we show that (i) the…
We investigated the transport properties in a normal metal/ferromagnet/normal metal/superconductor junction based on semi-Dirac materials with inverted energy gap. With a scattering matrix approach, we show that the electron transport in…
We report measurements of magnetic switching and steady-state magnetic precession driven by spin-polarized currents in nanoscale magnetic tunnel junctions with low-resistance, < 5 Ohm-micron-squared, barriers. The current densities required…
Results of theoretical study of spin-polarized tunneling in ferromagnet/superconductor junctions are presented. Spin and charge currents are calculated as a function of applied voltage and spin polarization in a ferromagnet. The model takes…
