We study the spin injection efficiency into single and bilayer graphene on the ferrimagnetic insulator Yttrium-Iron-Garnet (YIG) through an exfoliated tunnel barrier of bilayer hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). The contacts of two samples…

Realisation of practical spintronic devices relies on the ability to create and detect pure spin currents. In graphene-based spin valves this is usually achieved by injection of spin-polarized electrons from ferromagnetic contacts via a…

Electrical spin injection from ferromagnetic metals into graphene is hindered by the impedance mismatch between the two materials. This problem can be reduced by the introduction of a thin tunnel barrier at the interface. We present room…

We characterize the spin injection into bilayer graphene fully encapsulated in hBN using trilayer (3L) hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) tunnel barriers. As a function of the DC bias, the differential spin injection polarization is found to…

The in-plane lattice constants of close-packed planes of fcc and hcp Ni and Co match that of graphite almost perfectly so that they share a common two dimensional reciprocal space. Their electronic structures are such that they overlap in…
