Electrical injection and detection of spin polarization in InSb/ferromagnet nanostructuresKim, Yong-Jae 15 August 2012 (has links)
We present studies of the electical detection of spin injection and transport in InSb/CoFe heterostructures. As a narrow gap semiconductor, InSb has a high mobility and strong spin-orbit interaction. Using ferromagnetic CoFe, lateral InSb/CoFe devices are fabricated by semiconductor processing techniques. The saturation magnetizations of various CoFe electrodes with different widths are calculated from Hall measurements in which the fringing fields of the CoFe electrodes are detected. A magnetic model provides reasonable estimation of the saturation magnetization for micrometer scale geometries. The interface magnetoresistance measurements of InSb/CoFe thin film layered structures present a unique peak at low field, having a symmetric behavior in magnetic field with a critical field Hc and a strong temperature dependence. We attribute our signal to a ferromagnetic phase in the InSb induced by spin injection. In a non-local lateral spin valve measurement, we observed the following. Firstly, Hc of the lateral spin valve signals is identical to Hc of interface magnetoresistance signals. Secondly, the non-local lateral spin valve signals are strongly dependent on temperature, which is also a unique characteristic magnetoresistance. Thirdly, the signals are tunable in response to an applied injector bias. Lastly, the signals are dependent on the exact interfaces. Based on these observations, the detected signals may be considered as spin current signals. The Hall and magnetoresistance signals are measured locally and non-locally in InSb/CoFe Hall devices. The non-local magnetoresistance signals exhibit asymmetric behavior in applied magnetic field which are considered as signatures of spin phenomena. The non-local Hall signals present switching behavior with the CoFe magnetization switching at the coercive field. The non-local Hall signals in a perpendicular field show Hc, similarly seen in non-local lateral spin valves. Inverse spin Hall effect measurements with tilted magnetic fields show an in-plane magnetic field dependence in non-local type Hall signal and a perpendicular magnetic field dependence in the local Hall measurement. We have found that the signal can have its origin in a spin current from our observation of Hc and hysteresis in the magnetization traces. As yet, the spin current transport mechanism is unknown. / Ph. D.

Electronic structures and magnetic properties of iron in various magnetic states and structural phasesPeng, Songshi S. 23 May 1991 (has links)
Total energy calculations based on density functional theory are generally a good
approach to obtain the properties of solids. The local density approximation (LDA) is
widely used for calculating the ground state properties of electronic systems; for excited
states the errors are in general unknown. The important aspects of LDA pertain to the
modeling of the exchange-correlation interaction. If the exchange-correlation potential is
approximately the same for the ground and excited states, one expects good results from
the LDA calculations for excited states. In this thesis, we utilize the total energy technique
for numerical computations of the electronic structure of iron in several magnetic phases
and crystalline structures.
1. Body-centered-cubic iron in the ferromagnetic and several antiferromagnetic
configurations. We use the total energy results to obtain the parameters in a model
Heisenberg Hamiltonian. These include the interaction parameters up to 6-th nearest
neighbors. Based on this model Hamiltonian we calculate properties such as the critical
(Curie) temperature and spin stiffness constant. We assume that the total exchangecorrelation
energy functional is the same in the ferromagnetic ground state and the
antiferromagnetic excited states. Our model parameters are based directly on ab initio
calculations of the electronic structure. Our calculation yields good results compared with
experimental values and earlier work. Some other physical quantities, related to the phase
transition, and spin waves are also discussed.
2. Face-centered-tetragonal iron. If iron is grown on a proper substrate ( e.g.,
Cu(100) ), the crystal structure of the thin film displays a face-centered-tetragonal distortion
due to the lattice constant misfit between the film and substrate. Therefore, we performed
calculations for fct iron in its ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic, and nonmagnetic phases for
a wide range of values of the lattice parameters. In the ferromagnetic calculations, we found
two minima in the total energy: one is close to.the bcc structure and the other ( with a lower
energy ) is close to fcc. In the antiferromagnetic and nonmagnetic calculations, we found in
each case that there is only one minimum near the fcc structure, providing us clear evidence
that the antiferromagnetic and nonmagnetic states are (meta)stable near the fcc region and
unstable in bcc region. The antiferromagnetic and nonmagnetic states are almost degenerate
near the fcc minimum, but the antiferromagnetic phase has the lowest total energy in the
whole fct region. Magnetic moments are also calculated for a variety of fct structures. Near
the fcc minimum we found that two ferromagnetic phases co-exist, one with a low spin and
one with a high spin. These results are consistent with experimental facts and other earlier
calculations. Some structural properties, such as the elastic constants and the bulk
modulus, are also studied and compared with experimental data and some earlier
calculations. / Graduation date: 1992
