Tunnel Magnetoresistance with Atomically Thin Two-Dimensional Hexagonal Boron Nitride Barriers
André Dankert, M. Venkata Kamalakar, Abdul Wajid +2
The two-dimensional atomically thin insulator hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) constitutes a new paradigm in tunnel based devices. A large band gap along with its atomically flat nat…
Room Temperature Electrical Detection of Spin Polarized Currents in Topological Insulators
André Dankert, Johannes Geurs, M. Venkata Kamalakar +1
Topological insulators (TIs) are a new class of quantum materials that exhibit spin momentum locking (SML) of massless Dirac fermions in the surface states. Usually optical methods…
Engineering Schottky Barrier in Black Phosphorus field effect devices for spintronic applications

Black phosphorous (BP) is is recently unveiled as a promising two-dimensional direct bandgap semiconducting material. Here, we report the ambipolar field effect transistor behavior…
Enhanced Tunnel Spin Injection into Graphene using Chemical Vapor Deposited Hexagonal Boron Nitride
M. Venkata Kamalakar, André Dankert, Johan Bergsten +2
The van der Waals heterostructures of two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystals constitute a new paradigm in nanoscience. Hybrid devices of graphene with insulating 2D hexagonal boron n…
Spin Transport and Precession in Graphene measured by Nonlocal and Three-Terminal Methods
André Dankert, Mutta Venkata Kamalakar, Johan Bergsten +1
We investigate the spin transport and precession in graphene by using the Hanle effect in nonlocal and threeterminal measurement geometries. Identical spin lifetimes, spin diffusio…
Thermal Creation of Electron Spin Polarization in n-Type Silicon
André Dankert, Saroj P. Dash
Conversion of heat into a spin-current in electron doped silicon can offer a promising path for spin-caloritronics. Here we create an electron spin polarization in the conduction b…
Efficient Spin Injection into Silicon and the Role of the Schottky Barrier
André Dankert, Ravi S. Dulal, Saroj P. Dash
Implementing spin functionalities in Si, and understanding the fundamental processes of spin injection and detection, are the main challenges in spintronics. Here we demonstrate la…
