Spin inversion in graphene spin valves by gate-tunable magnetic proximity effect at one-dimensional contacts

Owing to its long spin diffusion length, graphene shows promise for spintronics applications, especially when encapsulated within hexagonal boron nitride. Here, the authors demonstrate gate-tunable spin transport in encapsulated graphene-based spin valves with one-dimensional ferromagnetic edge cont...
