We study the physical properties of a half-metallic ferromagnet$\mid$superconductor (HM$\mid$S) bilayer, allowing for an arbitrary bulk pairing symmetry of the superconductor and spin-dependent processes at the interface. In particular, we…

Weyl semimetal TaAs, a congenial host to the massless Weyl fermions, spontaneously lacks the time-reversal and the inversion symmetry and thus effectuates topologically stable Weyl nodes, resembling magnetic monopoles in momentum space.…

Insertion of a resistive contact between a ferromagnetic metal and a semiconductor microstructure is of critical importance for achieving efficient spin injection into a semiconductor. However, the equations of the diffusion theory are…

We compute the spin-active scattering matrix and the local spectrum at the interface between a metal and a three-dimensional topological band insulator. We show that there exists a critical incident angle at which complete (100%) spin flip…

We demonstrate fully electrical detection of spin injection in InAs quantum wells. A spin polarized current is injected from a NiFe thin film to a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) made of InAs based epitaxial multi-layers. Injected spins…

Generation of spin imbalance in nonmagnetic semiconductors is crucial for the functioning of many spintronic devices. An attractive design of spin injectors into semiconductors is based on a spin pumping from a precessing ferromagnet,…

Here, we report a novel and conceptually straightforward technique to detect the spin-polarization directly, with laser spot spatial resolution, at buried ferromagnet/insulator interfaces in ambient settings. This has been accomplished by…

Employing first-principles calculations, we investigate efficiency of spin injection from a ferromagnetic (FM) electrode (Ni) into graphene and possible enhancement by using a barrier between the electrode and graphene. Three types of…

Fully-relativistic first-principles calculations of the Fe(001) surface demonstrate that resonant surface (interface) states may produce sizeable tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance in magnetic tunnel junctions with a single magnetic…

We report on electrical spin injection measurements on MWNTs . We use a ferromagnetic alloy Pd$_{1-x}$Ni$_{x}$ with x $\approx$ 0.7 which allows to obtain devices with resistances as low as 5.6 $k\Omega$ at 300 $K$. The yield of device…

We study the problem of controlling spin waves propagation through an antiferromagnet/ferromagnet interface via tuning material parameters. It is done by introducing the degree of sublattice noncompensation of antiferromagnet (DSNA), which…

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 design spin filters for particles with potentially arbitrary spin S (= 1/2, 1, 3/2,....) using a one-dimensional periodic chain of magnetic atoms as a quantum device. Describing the system within a tight-binding formalism we present an…

We study spin and charge diffusion in metallic-ferromagnet/topological-insulator junctions. The coupled diffusion equations are derived perturbatively with respect to the strength of the interlayer tunneling. We calculate spin accumulation…

Boundary conditions are derived that determine the penetration of spin current through an interface of two non-collinear ferromagnets with an arbitrary angle between their magnetization vectors. We start from the well-known transformation…

The interface-induced magnetization damping of thin ferromagnetic films in contact with normal-metal layers is calculated from first principles for clean and disordered Fe/Au and Co/Cu interfaces. Interference effects arising from coherent…

We consider the separate spin channel contributions to the charge conductance in superconducting/ferromagnetic spin valve $F_1/N/F_2/S$ structures. We find that the up- and down-spin conductance contributions may have a very different…

The ballistic spin-filter effect from a ferromagnetic metal into a semiconductor has theoretically been studied with an intention of detecting the spin polarizability of density of states in FM layer at a higher energy level. The physical…

The contact resistance between two dissimilar semiconductors is determined by the carrier transmission through their interface. Despite the ubiquitous presence of interfaces, quantitative simulation of charge transport across such…

An interface control principle is proposed for unsteady fluid-structure in- teraction (FSI) analyses. This principle introduces a method of explicitly controlling the interface motion in the temporal direction to minimize the residual force…
