Spin Absorption Effect at Ferromagnet/Ge Schottky-Tunnel Contacts

Spin Absorption Effect at Ferromagnet/Ge Schottky-Tunnel Contacts

We study the influence of the junction size in ferromagnet (FM)/semiconductor (SC) contacts on four-terminal nonlocal spin signals in SC-based lateral spin-valve (LSV) structures. When we use FM/Ge Schottky-tunnel junctions with relatively low resistance-area products, the magnitude of the nonlocal...
