      Electrical determination of the spin relaxation time of photoexcited electrons in GaAs 

      Kurebayashi, H.; Trypiniotis, Theodossis; Lee, K.; Easton, S.; Ionescu, A.; Farrer, I.; Ritchie, D. A.; Bland, J. A. C.; Barnes, C. H. W. (2010)
      Spin-dependent transport for photoexcited electrons in an epitaxial Fe/GaAs interface was characterized from 5 to 300 K. The presence of spin-dependent transport was confirmed at all the measured temperatures and the spin ...

      Electron spin filtering in ferromagnet/semiconductor heterostructures 

      Bland, J. A. C.; Steinmuller, S. J.; Hirohata, A.; Cho, W. S.; Xu, Y. B.; Guertler, C. M.; Wastlbauer, G.; Ionescu, A.; Trypiniotis, Theodossis; Holmes, S. N. (2003)
      Circularly polarized light was used to generate spin-polarized electrons at room temperature in ferromagnet (FM)/GaAs Schottky diode structures. A change in the helicity-dependent photocurrent was obtained when the ...

      Numerical calculation model for spin-dependent transport of photoexcited electrons across Fe/GaAs(0 0 1) interfaces 

      Kurebayashi, H.; Trypiniotis, Theodossis; Lee, K.; Moutafis, C.; Easton, S.; Ionescu, A.; Bland, J. A. C.; Barnes, C. H. W. (2010)
      abs Spin-dependent transport of photogenerated electrons across Fe/GaAs(0 0 1) interfaces is calculated using a one-dimensional electron transport model. Creation of spin-polarized electrons by photoexcitation in this model ...
