This paper reviews the recent progress in germanium (Ge) spintronics on the basis of the
electrical spin injection from ferromagnets (FM), where Ge is a next generation …

Spin-charge interconversion phenomena are ubiquitous in solid-state physics and represent
a powerful tool to investigate spin transport in metals, semiconductors and …

The spin–orbit coupling relating the electron spin and momentum allows for spin generation,
detection and manipulation. It thus fulfils the three basic functions of the spin field-effect …

Hole spins in Ge quantum wells have shown success in both spintronic and quantum
applications, thereby increasing the demand for high-quality material. We performed …

The magnetoresistance of 50 nm thick epilayers of doped germanium is measured at a
range of temperatures down to 1.6 K. Both n-and p-type devices show quantum corrections …

We report on the nonlocal detection of optically oriented spins in lightly n-doped germanium
at room temperature. Localized spin generation is achieved by scanning a circularly …

We report on electrical measurements of spin-dependent transport of holes in all-epitaxial
CoFe/p-type germanium (p-Ge)/Fe 3 Si spin valves, where the hole concentration (ph) of the …

Topological insulators (TIs) hold great promise for new spin-related phenomena and
applications thanks to the spin texture of their surface states. However, a versatile platform …

Non-local carrier injection/detection schemes lie at the very foundation of information
manipulation in integrated systems. This paradigm consists in controlling with an external …

We investigate the spin-to-charge conversion in highly doped germanium as a function of
the kinetic energy of the carriers. Spin-polarized electrons are optically generated in the Ge …
