Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have fabricated various ferromagnet/semiconductor hybrid structures and investigated their spin-related properties and applications. We have successfully grown p-type and n- type ferromagnetic semiconductors (p-GaFeSb, n-InFeSb) with high curie temperature (Tc > 300 K). We discovered new magnetotransport phenomena (proximity giant magnetoresistance) in InAs/(Ga,Fe)As bilayer heterostructures, and this magnetoresistance can be controlled by applying a gate voltage in a transistor structure by shifting the position of the wave function of electron carriers in the InAs quantum well. We realized many other new functionalities in various ferromagnet/semiconductor hybrid structures created in this work. Furthermore, we have fabricated and vertical and lateral spin transistors and have demonstrated their device operations.
