A quantitative investigation of spin-pumping-induced spin-transport in n-GaAs was conducted at room temperature (RT). GaAs has a non-negligible spin orbit interaction, so that electromotive force due to the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) of GaAs con
tributed to the electromotive force detected with a platinum (Pt) spin detector. The electromotive force detected by the Pt spin detector had opposite polarity to that measured with a Ni80Fe20/GaAs bilayer due to the opposite direction of spin current flow, which demonstrates successful spin transport in the n-GaAs channel. A two-dimensional spin-diffusion model that considers the ISHE in the n-GaAs channel reveals an accurate spin diffusion length of t_s = 1.09 um in n-GaAs (NSi = 4x10^16 cm-3) at RT, which is approximately half that estimated by the conventional model.
