Abstract
Exploiting the spin degrees of freedom of electrons in nanoelectronic devices is considered as one of the alternative state variables for information storage and processing beyond the charge-based technology. We have shown that the mainstream semiconductors and novel 2D materials have great potential for the creation, transport, detection, and manipulation of spin polarization at room temperature.
Particularly, I will present the basic building blocks for realization of spin circuits, such as spin injection into silicon [1], long-distance spin communication in graphene circuits [2,3], large tunnel spin polarization using h-BN barriers [4], and electrical gate control of spin polarization in graphene/MoS2 heterostructure [5].
Furthermore, using topological materials we electrically detected a novel spin current due to spin-momentum locking [6], spin Hall [7], and Edelstein [8] effects which can be useful for future spin-orbit torque-based memory and logic devices.
Finally, combining graphene with topological insulators and magnetic insulators we reported the emergence of strong proximity induced spin texture [10], gate tunable Rashba-Edelstein effect [10], and magnetic exchange interaction [11].
These findings demonstrate all-electrical spintronic devices at room temperature in 2D materials heterostructure, which can be key building blocks in future device architectures.
