Absolute spin-valve effect with superconducting proximity structures

arXiv:cond-mat/0107346 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.88.047003

Abstract

We investigate spin dependent transport in hybrid superconductor(S)--normal-metal(N)--ferromagnet(F) structures under conditions of proximity effect. We demonstrate the feasibility of the absolute spin-valve effect for a certain interval of voltages in a system consisting of two coupled tri-layer structures. Our results are also valid for non-collinear magnetic configurations of the ferromagnets.
