摘要:

我们研究了自旋注入到铁磁绝缘体钇铁石榴石(YIG)上的单层和双层石墨烯通过剥离的双层六方氮化硼(hBN)隧道势垒的效率。两个样品的接触产生5和30 k $Ωμ$ m $^2$之间的电阻-面积积。取决于所施加的DC偏置电流,非局部自旋信号的幅度可以被增加或抑制到噪声水平以下。自旋注入效率达到-60%~+25%。自旋阀和自旋进动测量结果证实了这一点。发现样品A中的邻近感应交换场为(85 $\pm$ 30)mT,样品B中的邻近感应交换场接近检测极限。我们的研究结果表明,Gurram等人报道的双层hBN隧道势垒的特殊自旋注入特性不仅限于完全封装的石墨烯系统,而且在石墨烯/YIG器件中也有效。这进一步强调了双层hBN作为石墨烯自旋电子学的有效且可靠的隧道势垒的多功能性。

英文摘要:

We study the spin injection efficiency into single and bilayer graphene on the ferrimagnetic insulator Yttrium-Iron-Garnet (YIG) through an exfoliated tunnel barrier of bilayer hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). The contacts of two samples yield a resistance-area product between 5 and 30 k$Ωμ$m$^2$. Depending on an applied DC bias current, the magnitude of the non-local spin signal can be increased or suppressed below the noise level. The spin injection efficiency reaches values from -60% to +25%. The results are confirmed with both spin valve and spin precession measurements. The proximity induced exchange field is found in sample A to be (85 $\pm$ 30) mT and in sample B close to the detection limit. Our results show that the exceptional spin injection properties of bilayer hBN tunnel barriers reported by Gurram et al. are not limited to fully encapsulated graphene systems but are also valid in graphene/YIG devices. This further emphasizes the versatility of bilayer hBN as an efficient and reliable tunnel barrier for graphene spintronics.
