Research Abstract |
The research purpose is developing an SP-STM. (1) In 1992 we succeeded in observing the spin polarized tunneling current which depends on the circularity of the incident light to GaAs samples and plarization of Ni tips. This means the possiblitiy of developing SP-STM. (2) We have developed UHV SP-STM with GaAs and transition metals. (3) Using the UHV STM we measured STS and the current spin polarization against tip bias for Ni and Fe in which energy band structure reflected. (4) We have studied the basic research on spin tuneling phenomena by UHV STM and as a result it has been confirmed that we can develop the SP-STM using a GaAs tip.
