Topological insulators (TIs) are an unusual phase of quantum matter with nontrivial spin-momentum locked topological surface states (TSS). The electrical detection of spin-momentum locking of the TSS in 3D TIs has been lacking till very…
The electrical injection of spin polarized electrons in a semiconductor can be achieved in principle by driving a current from a ferromagnetic metal, where current is known to be significantly spin polarized, into the semiconductor via…
We present measurements of pure spin current absorption on lateral spin valves. By varying the width of the absorber we demonstrate that spin current absorption measurements enable to characterize efficiently the spin transport properties…
Room temperature local magnetoresistance in two-terminal scheme is reported. By employing 1.6 nm-thick MgO tunnel barrier, spin injection efficiency is increased, resulting in large non-local magnetoresistance. The magnitude of the…
We study the electrical injection and detection of spin accumulation in lateral ferromagnetic metal-nonmagnetic metal-ferromagnetic metal (F/N/F) spin valve devices with transparent interfaces. Different ferromagnetic metals, permalloy…
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…
The Hanle-type spin precession method was carried out associated with non-local magnetoresistance measurement using a highly doped (5\times10^19) silicon channel. The spin diffusion length obtained by the Hanle-method is in good agreement…
A longstanding goal of research in semiconductor spintronics is the ability to inject, modulate, and detect electron spin in a single device. A simple prototype consists of a lateral semiconductor channel with two ferromagnetic contacts,…
We performed angular and temperature-dependent electron-spin-resonance measurements in the quasi-two-dimensional organic conductor $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$Cu[N(CN)$_2$]I. The interlayer spin-diffusion is much weaker compared to the Cl- and…
Since the discovery of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect the use of the intrinsic angular momentum of the electrons has opened up new spin based device concepts. The two channel model of spin-up and spin-down electrons with…
Lateral spin valves are used to generate and characterize pure spin currents. Non-local voltage measured in such structures provides information about spin polarization and spin decay rates. For wide high-transparency F/N contacts it was…
The spin injection and accumulation in metallic lateral spin valves with transparent interfaces is studied using d.c. injection current. Unlike a.c.-based techniques, this allows investigating the effects of the direction and magnitude of…
Spin injection and detection in Co60Fe40-based all-metallic lateral spin-valves have been studied at both room and low temperatures. The obtained spin signals amplitudes have been compared to that of identical Ni80Fe20-based devices. The…
Although the electrical injection, transport and detection of spins in silicon have been achieved, the induced spin accumulation was much smaller than expected and desired, limiting the potential impact of Si-based spintronic devices. Here,…
We demonsrtate electrical spin injection and detection in $n$-type Ge ($n$-Ge) at room temperature using four-terminal nonlocal spin-valve and Hanle-effect measurements in lateral spin-valve (LSV) devices with Heusler-alloy Schottky tunnel…
At the interface between a nonmagnetic metal (NM) and a ferromagnetic insulator (FI) spin current can interact with the magnetization, leading to a modulation of the spin current. The interfacial exchange field at these FI-NM interfaces can…
Conversion of heat into a spin-current in electron doped silicon can offer a promising path for spin-caloritronics. Here we create an electron spin polarization in the conduction band of n-type silicon by producing a temperature gradient…
The interpretation of some recent measurements of spin-dependent voltage for which the electric conduction does not play a role rises some new fundamental questions about the effects of spin-dependent heat currents. A two spin-channel model…
Topological insulators (TIs) are emerging materials for next-generation low-power nanoelectronic and spintronic device applications. TIs possess non-trivial spin-momentum locking features in the topological surface states in addition to the…
Creating, manipulating and detecting spin polarized carriers are the key elements of spin based electronics. Most practical devices use a perpendicular geometry in which the spin currents, describing the transport of spin angular momentum,…
