Coherent Spin Amplification Using a Beam Splitter


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We report spin amplification using a capacitive beam splitter in n-type GaAs where the spin polarization is monitored via transverse electron focusing measurement. It is shown that partially spin-polarized current injected by the emitter can be precisely controlled and the spin polarization associated with it can be amplified by the beam splitter, such that a considerably high spin polarization of around 50% can be obtained. Additionally, the spin remains coherent as shown by the observation of quantum interference. Our results illustrate that spin polarization amplification can be achieved in materials without strong spin-orbit interaction.
