Waveguides for spin-polarized currents in diluted magnetic semiconductor - nanomagnet hybrids

Diluted magnetic semiconductors in their paramagnetic phase exhibit a giant Zeeman response. This effect can be used in conjunction with external inhomogeneous magnetic fields to engineer spin-polarized charge-carrier eigenstates with certain desirable features. In this thesis, we solve Schrodinger’...
