自旋极化电子的高效注入、自旋霍尔效应和自旋流的产生与探测都是目前自旋电子学中热门研究专题,世界一些著名学术刊物屡见报道。对这些重要内容的理论和实验的最新研究成果进行了介绍。通过自旋极化电子高效注入方法和材料的研究,人们期望研制出新一代自旋电子器件,进而实现应用电子自旋传输、记录和存储信息的目标。近期实验给出,自旋极化电子从铁磁金属注入半导体和金属都获得较高的极化率。各种注入方法中,自旋流直接注入法目前备受关注,因为自旋霍尔效应为自旋流的产生与探测提供了新的途径,即自旋霍尔效应可以产生自旋流,但因无霍尔电压故不容易测量;而逆自旋霍尔效应又将自旋流转化为电流,使得难以测量的自旋流又可以直接用电学方法测量。 相似文献

利用可调节自旋过滤器模型,首次计算并讨论了磁场和电子跃迁能量间隔变化对量子点接触结构中自旋电子过滤特性的影响。研究发现,磁场和电子跃迁能量间隔的变化引起了自旋电子隧穿概率和隧穿电导都呈现出量子台阶效应,磁场的增加使电子的回旋频率和电子的Zeeman能级分裂同时加强,从而导致量子点接触结构中的横向约束加强,而自旋过滤效应明显减弱;当磁场一定时,电子跃迁能量间隔越小,电子的自旋过滤效应越明显。电子跃迁能量间隔改变的同时,也改变了鞍形势的势垒形状和自旋过滤的灵敏度。对于不同的材料,同时考虑磁场和电子跃迁能量间隔的作用可以找到自旋过滤器的最佳过滤效果。尤为重要的是过滤器的结构可以用标准的电子束技术很容易得到,所以研究结论为设计新型自旋过滤器提供了理论依据,具有广阔的应用前景和潜在的商业价值。此外,使用朗道因子值较高的材料作自旋过滤器的衬底,可以进一步提高过滤器的性能。 相似文献

研究了含Rashba自旋轨道耦合的磁电调制半导体二维电子气中弹道电子的反常位移 (Goos-H?nchen位移,即GH位移)。计算中发现,通过调节结构的各个参数包括入射角、磁场强度和Rashba自旋轨道耦合系数,可以有效地调控GH位移,并且在一定条件下可以为负。电子的GH位移和自旋极化态有密切关系,这个自旋相关的位移可以用来分离不同自旋极化的电子束。基于这种现象,提出了一种利用GH位移在半导体2DEG中分离不同自旋极化电子的方法。 相似文献

电子既是电荷的载体又是自旋的载体。电子作为电荷的载体,使二十世纪成为了微电子学的天下。而随着1988年巨磁电阻(GMR)效应发现以来,通过操纵电子的另一量子属性——自旋,使新一代的电子器件又多了一维控制手段。电子自旋的研究涵盖了金属磁性多层膜、磁性氧化物、磁性半导体等众多体系,探寻这些体系中自旋输运的基本原理是研究的重点。目前,基于传统自旋阀中极化输运及自旋电子学的发展,对新材料和新结构的研究尚不成熟,还有众多科学问题亟待解决,诸如:如何在室温下获得更大的巨磁电阻变化率、提高器件的稳定性及灵敏度、自旋阀中交换偏置场产生的物理根源、实现自旋同半导体完美结合的材料、结构及方法等。因此,基于国内外自旋电子学研究的重点,首先围绕最基本的自旋阀纳米多层膜结构,开展了自旋阀多层膜制备、设计、结构优化、自旋阀交换偏置核心结构物理机制探索等研究;其次,提出了三种异质结新结构,并以大自旋极化率Fe3O4磁性半金属为核心材料,开展了自旋阀、新异质结研究;最后,在理论与材料研究的基础上,对自旋器件进行了设计与实验研究,获得了一些有益的结果:(1)理论方面,基于自旋电子器件进一步发展对新结构、新材料发展的需求,提出了磁性半导体/半导体、磁性半导体/磁性半导体、自旋滤波材料/自旋滤波材料的新自旋异质结模型。理论分析发现,利用磁性半导体/半导体异质结,在负偏压的作用下可实现自旋电子的极化输运,而利用磁性半导体/磁性半导体、自旋滤波材料/自旋滤波材料异质结可实现趋于100%的磁电阻变化率。另外通过计算,对可实现的磁阻效应及对材料的要求进行了详细研究,为新材料的应用奠定了一定的理论基础。(2)虽然基于自旋阀核心结构的自旋电子器件研究已开展了多年,但如何进一步提高自旋电子器件的磁电阻效应、灵敏度、工作范围、工作稳定性和解决这些问题的物理机制,仍是自旋电子学中的一个热点。因而,首先基于Mott二流体模型发现自旋阀巨磁电阻受磁性材料、非磁性材料、自旋极化率、自旋扩散长度、厚度、尺寸、电阻率等影响明显,因而可通过改善制备工艺条件及各层的材料、厚度改善自旋阀的性能,探寻提高巨磁电阻变化率、灵敏度等的有效途径。其次,以理论分析为指导,实验上首先制备Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn传统自旋阀多层膜,研究了自由层、隔离层、钉扎层、反铁磁层厚度对巨磁电阻效应的影响,找到了最佳的制备工艺;其次,研究了缓冲层材料对自旋阀灵敏度、巨磁电阻效应的影响。发现由于缓冲层元素表面自由能的影响导致了自旋阀灵敏度的改变,指出选择适当表面自由能的缓冲层,可有效改善自由层薄膜的性能,为提高器件的灵敏度提供了有效的途径;最后,基于室温磁场下制备自旋阀交换偏置场较小、工作范围较窄的问题,通过对传统结构的改进,提出了新型双交换偏置场自旋阀模型,为增大器件工作稳定性、人为调制器件工作范围,提供了有效手段。(3)交换偏置在自旋电子器件中具有核心地位,但到目前为止,其产生的物理根源、影响其大小的因素仍是未解决的难题。因而,基于自旋阀的核心结构——铁磁/反铁磁交换偏置效应,研究了NiFe/FeMn双层膜钉扎层、被钉扎层厚度、材料微结构、底钉扎、顶钉扎结构等对交换偏置的影响,分析了交换偏置产生的物理根源;研究了制备磁场大小对钉扎场大小的影响,发现了利用大磁场可实现提高交换偏置的新方法,并利用52kA/m(650Oe)的大磁场在1~2nm的NiFe钉扎层中实现了接近48kA/m(600Oe)的交换偏置场。(4)基于自旋阀测试,研究了初始测试磁场平行与反平行于交换偏置场方向,测试电流的大小对交换偏置场的影响。并用大脉冲电流,在初始测试磁场反平行于交换偏置场方向的样品中,首次实现电流矩在电流沿膜面流动自旋阀结构中对钉扎场的翻转,为铁磁/反铁磁双层膜体系产生交换偏置的机理提供了新的研究途径,并对自旋阀的应用提出了新的挑战。(5)为探寻高自旋极化率的新材料,开展了半金属磁性材料Fe3O4薄膜制备工艺的研究。通过改变溅射功率、退火温度、缓冲层、磁场沉积等,在200W溅射功率、300℃的退火温度、24kA/m(300Oe)沉积磁场的最佳条件下获得了高晶粒织构、成分单一的Fe3O4薄膜,并通过对氧气氛的调节,实现了无缓冲层高性能Fe3O4薄膜的制备。(6)利用所制备的Fe3O4薄膜,进行了基于Fe3O4自旋阀的制备,发现Fe3O4薄膜同其它金属材料间电阻率的失配,是造成巨磁电阻效应低的原因;另外,基于理论提出的磁性材料/半导体异质结,制备了Fe3O4/n-Si纳米结,初步实现了磁性材料到半导体的自旋注入与输运。 相似文献

A new model of metal/semiconductor/metal double-quantum-ring connected in series is proposed and the transport properties in this model are theoretically studied.The results imply that the transmission coefficient shows periodic variations with increasing semiconductor ring size.The effects of the magnetic field and Rashba spin-orbit interaction on the transmission coefficient for two kinds of spin state electrons are different.The number of the transmission coefficient peaks is related to the length ratio between the upper arm and the half circumference of the ring.In addition,the transmission coefficient shows oscillation behavior with enhanced external magnetic field,and the corresponding average value is related to the two leads’ relative position. 相似文献

Absorption of a surface acoustic wave by a quantum-ring array occupied by one or two electrons is considered. Dependences of the absorption coefficient on the magnetic flux through the quantum ring and the acoustic-wave frequency with allowance made for the Coulomb interaction between electrons are calculated. It is shown that the absorption coefficient is an oscillatory function of the magnetic flux with a period equal to the magnetic-flux quantum. 相似文献

The one-dimensional motion of electrons in O-type travelling-wave devices is described in terms of wave mechanics. For the case of large-signal interaction it is found that in the final stage of the interaction the electrons travel along tit discrete energy levels involving Planck's constant. By making use of the Pauli exclusion principle, the saturation power and electronic efficiency of the large-signal travelling-wave tube are obtained. 相似文献

The adhesive strength of PMMA structures obtained by deep X-ray lithography with synchrotron radiation is a decisive factor for effective structure replication in subsequent electroforming processes. The adhesion depends on various factors, in particular on the interaction of radiation and secondary electrons at the boundary resist/substrate. We have determined the adhesion strength of PMMA microcolumns as a function of the dose deposited below the mask absorber by breaking tension measurements applying a new experimental method. Care has been taken to separate degradation effects in the resist due to the primary photon beam from the loss of adhesion at the boundary substrate/resist caused by secondary electrons. This has been studied quantitatively by utilizing different substrate materials like glassy carbon, wet oxidized titanium, copper and gold. Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out to simulate the deposited dose at the surface layer of different substrates. The corresponding results are supplemented by deep lithography experiments, which may be used as a means to directly conclude the deposited resist dose from secondary electrons emitted from the substrate surface. All the irradiation experiments have been performed with specially designed masks for deep X-ray lithography at the storage ring DCI (Orsay/France). 相似文献

The effect of the electron-phonon interaction on the third-harmonic is investigated theoretically for electrons confined in a core-shell quantum dot. The interactions of electrons with different phonon modes in the core-shell system, including the confined longitudinal optical (LO) and the interface optical (IO) phonon modes, are investigated. We carried a detailed calculation of third-harmonic generation (THG) process on a ZnS/CdSe core-shell quantum dot as a function of pump photon energy with different incident photon energy and under different sizes. The results reveal that the polaron effects are quite important especially around the peak value of the third-order susceptibility. By increasing the size of the quantum dots, the peaks of χTHG(3) will shift to lower energy, and the intensities of the peaks will increase. 相似文献

The theoretical treatment of electron-electron (e-e) scattering in semiconductor transport has always posed formidable problems, due to the long range and to the non-linearity of the interaction. Here we present a Monte Carlo study of the e-e interaction based on a molecular-dynamics approach. The full long range of the Coulomb interaction is accounted for, and no assumptions are needed on the screening process. This is particularly important when different valleys are involved, and a multi-component plasma has to be simulated. The Monte Carlo algorithm is applied to the study of the relaxation of photo-excited electrons in GaAs looking in particular at the energy exchange between electrons in different valleys. Such type of interaction has never been considered up to now in Monte Carlo simulations. The dependence of the e-e interaction on the electron density is discussed in detail. A comparison with a different approach, that treats the e-e scattering in k-space using a screened potential formulation, is also presented. 相似文献

In this paper the interaction between a relativistic electron beam moving in a static magnetic field and a travelling electromagnetic wave is analysed by using the kinetic power theorem. The concept of the electron bunching function is introduced to illustrate the bunching process of beam electrons as a whole. By numerical calculation, the energy exchange process between gyrating electrons and the travelling wave field is obtained in detail. The results of the calculation show that the imaginary part of the axial wave number does not stay constant along the interaction length and that the gain characteristic is non-linear. Based on this analytic method, the maximum output power and efficiency of the gyrotron amplifier with a uniform waveguide are calculated and are found to depend critically on the value of the static magnetic field and the operating frequency. A new type of gyrotron amplifier is suggested here. In this device the gyrating electrons interact with the travelling wave in an undulated waveguide. Its instantaneous bandwidth is somewhat broadened and the optimum value of applied magnetic field is not too critical. 相似文献

We investigate the effects of an AC field on the dynamics of interacting electrons in quantum dots (QDs). We first consider a double QD containing two electrons. By mapping the system to an effective lattice model and employing Floquet theory we analyze the dynamics of the two-electron wavefunctions in the singlet space. This system presents a richer phenomenology than the case of a single electron in a double QD, displaying two distinct regimes of behaviour depending on whether the applied field strength or the inter-electron Coulomb repulsion is dominant. We then study the dynamics of two electrons in a 2D square QD in the limit of very low density, where the Coulomb interaction causes the electrons to become highly localized, forming a ‘Wigner molecule’. Using the same techniques we investigate how the AC field drives the dynamics of the Wigner states, and show how the parameters of the effective model may be measured in experiment. 相似文献
