Size-reduction of nanodiamonds via air oxidation
T. Gaebel, C. Bradac, J. Chen +2
Here we report the size reduction and effects on nitrogen-vacancy centres in nanodiamonds by air oxidation using a combined atomic force and confocal microscope. The average height…
Giant adiabatic spin torque in magnetic tunnel junctions with a hybrid free layer structure
Xiaofeng Yao, Yisong Zhang, Andrew Lyle +7
The discovery of spin torque transfer (STT) has lead to a significant advance in the development of spintronic devices. Novel structures and materials have been studied in order to…
Semiclassical path integral approach on spin relaxations in narrow wires
Cheng-Hung Chang, Jengjan Tsai, Hui-Fen Lo +1
The semiclassical path integral method has been applied for studying spin relaxation in a narrow 2D strip with the Rashba spin-orbit interaction. Our numerical calculations show a…
Ballistic Intrinsic Spin-Hall Effect in HgTe Nanostructures
C. Bruene, A. Roth, E. G. Novik +6
We report the first electrical manipulation and detection of the mesoscopic intrinsic spin-Hall effect (ISHE) in semiconductors through non-local electrical measurement in nano-sca…
Paramagnetic to Superparamagnetic Transition in Ni(OH)_2 Nanoparticles
S. D. Tiwari, K. P. Rajeev
We report the temperature and field dependence of dc magnetization on sol-gel prepared nanoparticles of Ni(OH)_2. At higher temperature the system is found to behave as a paramagne…
Observation of extremely slow hole spin relaxation in self-assembled quantum dots
D. Heiss, S. Schaeck, H. Huebl +5
We report the measurement of extremely slow hole spin relaxation dynamics in small ensembles of self-assembled InGaAs quantum dots. Individual spin orientated holes are optically c…
