| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research project is to develop spintronic devices utilizing organic semiconductor single crystals basically consisting of carbon which is an ubiquitous element. We used a micro spin-pumping method as a technique to inject spins into organic semiconductors and nonmagnetic metals, and the injection, the transport and the detection of spins were examined experimentally. We successfully controlled the magnetization dynamics in the microfabricated magnetic element, and injected spins into the Cu nanowire due to the micro spin-pumping. We also observed the change in the spin accumulation in Cu by attaching the Pt wire with Cu. In addition, we fabricated the device with the junction of Rubrene single crystal and ferromagnetic electrode, and evaluated the magnetization dynamics under the gate voltage application.
