Spin transference and magnetoresistance amplification in a transistor
A current problem in semiconductor spin-based electronics is the difficulty
of experimentally expressing the effect of spin-polarized current in electrical
circuit measurements. We present a theoretical solution with the principle of
transference of the spin diffusion effects in the semiconductor channel of a
system with three magnetic terminals. A notable result of technological
consequences is the room temperature amplification of the magneto-resistive
effect, integrable with electronics circuits, demonstrated by computation of
current dependence on magnetization configuration in such a system with
currently achievable parameters.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, revised version, changed title, new figure
