Thermo-Electric Properties of Quantum Point Contacts

H. van Houten, L. W. Molenkamp, C. W. J. Beenakker +1

Tunneling magnetoresistance in devices based on epitaxial NiMnSb with uniaxial anisotropy

J. Liu, E. Girgis, P. Bach +4

We demonstrate tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) junctions based on a tri layer system consisting of an epitaxial NiMnSb, aluminum oxide and CoFe tri layer. The junctions show a tunne…

Direct observation of the Aharonov-Casher phase

M. Koenig, A. Tschetschetkin, E. M. Hankiewicz +7

Ring structures fabricated from HgTe/HgCdTe quantum wells have been used to study Aharonov-Bohm type conductance oscillations as a function of Rashba spin-orbit splitting strength.…

Quantitative detection of electrically injected spin accumulation in GaAs using the magneto-optical Kerr effect

A. V. Kimel, A. Kirilyuk, P. Grabs +5

Using an ultra sensitive magneto-optical Kerr rotation setup we have observed electrical spin injection from (Zn,Mn)Se into bulk GaAs and quantified the spin injection efficiency.…

Spin-lattice relaxation of Mn-ions in ZnMnSe/ZnBeSe quantum wells measured under pulsed photoexcitation

M. K. Kneip, D. R. Yakovlev, M. Bayer +6

The dynamics of spin-lattice relaxation of the Mn-ions in (Zn,Mn)Se-based diluted-magnetic-semiconductor quantum wells is studied by time-resolved photoluminescence. The spin-latti…

Self Assembled II-VI Magnetic Quantum Dot as a Voltage-Controlled Spin-Filter

C. Gould, A. Slobodskyy, T. Slobodskyy +6

A key element in the emergence of a full spintronics technology is the development of voltage controlled spin filters to selectively inject carriers of desired spin into semiconduc…
