      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 ...

      Highly efficient spin filtering of ballistic electrons 

      Steinmuller, S. J.; Trypiniotis, Theodossis; Cho, W. S.; Hirohata, A.; Lew, W. S.; Vaz, C. A. F.; Bland, J. A. C. (2004)
      Spin dependent electron transport in hybrid Au/Co/Cu/NiFe/n-GaAs spin valve Schottky barrier structures was investigated using photoexcitation at various wavelengths. For excitation with the photon energy well above the ...

      Highly efficient spin filtering of ballistic electrons in hybrid spin valve/semiconductor structures 

      Steinmuller, S. J.; Trypiniotis, Theodossis; Hirohata, A.; Cho, W. S.; Lew, W. S.; Vaz, C. A. F.; Bland, J. A. C. (2004)
      The highly efficient spin filtering of ballistic electrons in hybrid spin valve/semiconductor (SC) structures was discussed. It was found that the photocurrent was dependent on the relative alignment of the light helicity ...

      Spin polarization control through resonant states in an Fe/GaAs Schottky barrier 

      Honda, S.; Itoh, H.; Inoue, J.; Kurebayashi, H.; Trypiniotis, Theodossis; Barnes, C. H. W.; Hirohata, A.; Bland, J. A. C. (2008)
      Spin polarization of the tunnel conductivity has been studied for Fe/GaAs junctions with Schottky barriers. It is shown that band matching of resonant interface states within the Schottky barrier defines the sign of spin ...
