Reflection and refraction of an electron spin at the junction between two two-dimensional regions with and without spin-orbit interaction
Supriyo Bandyopadhyay, Marc Cahay, Jonathan Ludwick
We derive the reflection and refraction laws for an electron spin incident from a quasi-two-dimensional medium with no spin-orbit interaction on another with both Rashba and Dresse…
Work Function Characterization of the Directionally Solidified LaB6 VB2 Eutectic
Tyson C. Back, Steven B. Fairchild, John Boeckl +5
With its low work function and high mechanical strength, the LaB6/VB2 eutectic system is an interesting candidate for high performance thermionic emitters. For the development of d…
Laser Stimulated Grain Growth in 304 Stainless Steel Anodes for Reduced Hydrogen Outgassing
D. Gortat, M. Sparkes, S. B. Fairchild +6
Metal anodes in high power source (HPS) devices erode during operation due to hydrogen outgassing and plasma formation, both of which are thermally driven phenomena generated by th…
Hysteresis in the Conductance of Asymmetrically Biased GaAs Quantum Point Contacts with in-plane Side Gates
N. Bhandari, M. Dutta, J. Charles +2
We have observed hysteresis between the forward and reverse sweeps of a common mode bias applied to the two in-plane side gates of an asymmetrically biased GaAs quantum point conta…
Intrinsic Bistability In Quantum Point Contacts with in-plane Side Gates
J. Charles, M. Cahay, R. S. Newrock
We study the onset of intrinsic bistability and accompanying hysteresis in a single quantum point contact (QPC) with in-plane side gates in the presence of lateral spin-orbit coupl…
Tunable All Electric Spin Polarizer
J. Charles, N. Bhandari, J. Wan +2
We propose a new device to create a tunable all-electric spin polarizer: a quantum point contact (QPC) with four gates -- two in-plane side gates in series. The first pair of gates…
