Spintronics is one of the emerging research fields in nanotechnology and has been growing
very rapidly. Studies of spintronics were started after the discovery of giant …

Ultracompact sources of circularly polarized light are important for classical and quantum
optical information processing. Conventional approaches for generating chiral emission are …

Lasers have both ubiquitous applications and roles as model systems in which non-
equilibrium and cooperative phenomena can be elucidated. The introduction of novel …

Electronic and photonic materials discussed in this handbook are the key elements of
continued scientific and technological advances in the 21st century. The electronic and …

This article reviews the current status of spin dynamics in semiconductors which has
achieved much progress in the recent years due to the fast growing field of semiconductor …

S emiconductors are ubiquitous in device electronics because their charge distributions are
easily shaped and controlled to make logic gates. Since gate switching and …

Spin-polarized light sources are a new class of devices in which the radiative recombination
of spin-polarized carriers results in luminescence exhibiting a net circular polarization. The …

A spin-polarized vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is demonstrated with electrical spin
injection from an Fe/Al 0.1 Ga 0.9 As Schottky tunnel barrier. Laser operation with a spin …

We demonstrate a reduction of the threshold of a semiconductor laser by optically pumping
spin-polarized electrons in the gain medium. Polarized electrons couple selectively to one of …
