Control of spin current by a magnetic YIG substrate in NiFe/Al nonlocal spin valves

F. K. Dejene, N. Vlietstra, D. Luc +3

We study the effect of a magnetic insulator (Yttrium Iron Garnet - YIG) substrate on the spin transport properties of Ni${}_{80}$Fe${}_{20}$/Al nonlocal spin valve (NLSV) devices. The…
