研究了与铁磁/半导体/铁磁结构相关的双量子环自旋输运的规律,研究结果表明:总磁通为零条件下,铁磁电极磁化方向反平行时,双量子环与单量子环相比提高了自旋电子透射概率的平均值.铁磁电极磁化方向平行时,双量子环对提高自旋向下电子平均透射概率的效果更明显;双量子环受到Rashba自旋轨道耦合作用影响时,自旋电子的平均透射概率明显高于单量子环,即使再加上外加磁场的影响,透射概率较高这一特征依然存在;双量子环所含的δ势垒具有阻碍自旋电子输运的作用,随δ势垒强度Z的增大透射概率

继铁磁金属之后,具有强自旋轨道耦合与空间反演破缺的自旋极化量子材料,通过自旋—动量锁定(如Rashba、Dresselhaus自旋劈裂),实现了如自旋轨道矩、自旋场效应晶体管等新一代自旋电子学效应。近期,通过耦合新自由度,研究者们发现了一些新奇的自旋—动量锁定效应,包括突破空间反演对称限制的“隐藏自旋极化”效应和突破自旋轨道耦合限制的“反铁磁自旋极化”效应,这些发现再一次拓宽了可利用的自旋电子学材料。文章简要回顾了自旋—动量锁定效应的基本原理和发展现状,重点介绍了耦合实空间自由度的自旋—动量—层锁定效应,即隐藏自旋极化;和耦合局域磁矩自由度产生的与自旋轨道耦合无关的自旋—动量锁定效应,即反铁磁自旋极化;以及与两者相关的新型自旋电子学效应。最后,展望了自旋—动量锁定中多自由度耦合问题、隐藏X物理和反铁磁自旋电子学三个方面的未来发展。 相似文献

利用现代材料生长技术纳米厚的半导体可以沿着良好的方向有序生长,形成层状半导体纳米结构.在这种半导体纳米结构中由于结构反演对称性破缺出现较强的自旋-轨道耦合,能有效消除半导体中电子的自旋简并,导致电子自旋极化效应,在自旋电子学领域中具有重要的应用.本文从理论上研究了单层半导体纳米结构中由Rashba型自旋-轨道耦合引起的电子自旋极化效应.由于Rashba型自旋-轨道耦合,相当强的电子自旋极化效应出现在该单层半导体纳米结构中.自旋极化率与电子的能量和平面内波矢有关,尤其是其可通过外加电场或半导体层厚度进行调控.因此,该单层半导体纳米结构可作为半导体自旋电子器件应用中的可控电子自旋过滤器. 相似文献

提出了含δ势垒的多臂量子环模型.研究发现总磁通为零时,持续电流随半导体环增大发生非周期性振荡,下臂因含δ势垒而获得最小的平均持续电流.AB磁通增强时,持续电流会发生周期性等幅振荡,并与电极的磁矩方向以及隧穿电子的自旋方向相关.两电极磁矩方向平行时,Rashba自旋轨道耦合具有改变持续电流相位和相位差的效应;两电极磁矩方向反平行时,Rashba自旋轨道耦合具有改变持续电流振幅的效应.各臂之间持续电流的不同与臂长和磁通分布的差异相关.在一定条件下,两种波函数所对应的持续电流是可分离的.

自旋轨道耦合是电子自旋与轨道相互作用的桥梁, 它提供了利用外电场来调控电子的轨道运动、进而调控电子自旋状态的可能. 固体材料中有很多有趣的物理现象, 例如磁晶各向异性、自旋霍尔效应、拓扑绝缘体等, 都与自旋轨道耦合密切相关. 在表面/界面体系中, 由于结构反演不对称导致的自旋轨道耦合称为Rashba自旋轨道耦合, 它最早在半导体材料中获得研究, 并因其强度可由栅电压灵活调控而备受关注, 成为电控磁性的重要物理基础之一. 继半导体材料后, 金属表面成为具有Rashba自旋轨道耦合作用的又一主流体系. 本文以Au(111), Bi(111), Gd(0001)等为例综述了磁性与非磁性金属表面Rashba自旋轨道耦合的研究进展, 讨论了表面电势梯度、原子序数、表面态波函数的对称性, 以及表面态中轨道杂化等因素对金属表面Rashba自旋轨道耦合强度的影响. 在磁性金属表面, 同时存在Rashba自旋轨道耦合作用与磁交换作用, 通过Rashba自旋轨道耦合可能实现电场对磁性的调控. 最后, 阐述了外加电场和表面吸附等方法对金属表面Rashba自旋轨道耦合的调控. 基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理计算和角分辨光电子能谱测量是金属表面Rashba自旋轨道耦合的两大主要研究方法, 本文综述了这两方面的研究结果, 对金属表面Rashba自旋轨道耦合进行了深入全面的总结和分析. 相似文献

Spin transfer torque in magnetic structure occurs when the transverse component of the spin current that flows from the nonmagnetic medium to ferromagnetic medium is absorbed by the interface. In this paper, considering the Rashba effect on the semiconductor region, we discuss the spin transfer torque in semiconductor/ferromagnetic structure and obtain the components of spin-current density for two models:(i) single electron and(ii) the distribution of electrons. We show that no matter whether the difference in Fermi surface between semiconductor and Fermi spheres for the up and down spins in ferromagnetic increases, the transmission probability decreases. The obtained results for the values used in this article illustrate that Rashba effect increases the difference in Fermi sphere between semiconductor and Fermi sphere for the up and down spins in ferromagnetic. The results also show that the Rashba effect, brings an additional contribution to the components of spin transfer torque, which does not exist in the absence of the Rashba interaction. Moreover, the Rashba term has also different effects on the transverse components of the spin torque transfer. 相似文献

Based on the scattering approach, we investigate transport properties of electrons in a one-dimensional waveguide that contains a ferromagnetic/semiconductor/ferromagnetic heterojunction and tunnel barriers in the presence of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions. We simultaneously consider significant quantum size effects, quantum coherence, Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions and noncollinear magnetizations. It is found that the tunnel barrier plays a decisive role in the transmission coefficient and shot noise of the ballistic spin electron transport through the heterojunction. When the small tunnel barriers are considered, the transport properties of electrons are quite different from those without tunnel barriers. 相似文献

We study theoretically the transmission coefficients and the spin-tunneling time in ferromagnetic/semiconductor/ferromagnetic three-terminal heterojunction in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction, in which onedimensional quantum waveguide theory is developed and applied. Based on the group velocity concept and the particle current conservation principle, we calculate the spin-tunneling time as the function of the intensity of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and the length of the semiconductor. We find that as the length of the semiconductor increases, the spintunneling time does not increase linearly but shows behavior of slight oscillation. Furthermore, with the increasing of the spin-orbit coupling, the spin-tunneling time increases. 相似文献

Considering the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in the semiconductor, we study theoretically the spin-polarized transport in a two-dimensional ferromagnetic semiconductor double tunnel junctions by a quantum-mechanical approach. It is found that the transmission coefficient shows typical resonant transmission properties and the Rashba spin-orbit coupling has great different influences on the transmission coefficients of electrons with spin-up and down and tunnelling magnetoresistance (TMR). More importantly, the TMR is significantly enhanced by increasing the spin-orbit coupling, which is very useful for the designing of magnetic digital and memory sensor. 相似文献

A study on characteristics of electrons tunneling through semiconductor barrier is evaluated, in which we take into account the effects of Rashba spin-orbit interaction. Our numerical results show that Rashba spin-orbit effect originating from the inversion asymmetry can give rise to the spin polarization. The spin polarization does not increase linearly but shows obvious resonant features as the strength of Rashba spin-orbit coupling increases, and the amplitudes of spin polarization can reach the highest around the first resonant energy level. Furthermore, it is found that electrons with different spin orientations will spend quite different time through the same heterostructures. The difference of the dwell time between spin-up and spin-down electrons arise from the Rashba spin-orbit coupling. And it is also found that the dwell time will reach its maximum at the first resonant energy level. It can be concluded that, in the time domain, the tunneling processes of the spin-up and spin-down electrons can be separated by modulating the strength of Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Study results indicate that Rashba spin-orbit effect can cause a nature spin filter mechanism in the time domain. 相似文献

Based on the free-electron approximation,we investigate the effect of the ferromagnetic metal layer on the tunnelling magnetoresistance(TMR) and tunnelling conductance(TC)in the double magnetic tunnel junctions(DMTJs) of the structure NM/FM/I(S)/NM/I(S)/FM/NM,where FM,NM and I(S) represent the ferromagnetic metal,nonmagetic metal and insulator(Semiconductor),respectively,The FM,I(S)and inner NM layers are of finite thickness,while the thickness of the outer NM layer is infinite.The calculated results show that,due to the spin-dependent interfacial potential barriers caused by electronic band mismatch between the various magnetic and nonmagnetic layers,the dependences of the TMR and TC on the thicknesses of the FM layers exhibit oscillations,and a much higher TMR can be obtained for suitable thicknesses of FM layers. 相似文献
