Spin injection into semiconductors
This thesis describes the studies of the spin polarized current transport across Schottky barriers. Partially spin polarized electrons (~50%) are optically excited using circularly polarized light in GaAs. Under forward bias, these electrons are detected by a ferromagnetic (FM) layer at the FM/Semic...
