The Magneto-coulomb effect in spin valve devices

Abstract

We discuss the influence of the magneto-coulomb effect (MCE) on the magnetoconductance of spin valve devices. We show that MCE can induce magnetoconductances of several per cents or more, dependent on the strength of the coulomb blockade. Furthermore, the MCE-induced magnetoconductance changes sign as a function of gate voltage. We emphasize the importance of separating conductance changes induced by MCE from those due to spin accumulation in spin valve devices.
