Research Abstract |
The spin-based electronic (spintronic) technologies are promising to break through the scaling limits of the CMOS. In particular, group-IV semiconductor spintronics, compatible with the conventional Si-LSI, is desired. In line with this, we have investigated high-quality formation of the ferromagnetic silicide (Fe_3Si) on SiGe to realize source-drain (S/D) engineering of spin-transistors. Consequently, we have developed a technique for the atomically-controlled epitaxial growth of Fe_3Si on SiGe and demonstrated the electrical spin injection and detection in Si.
