Spin current generator based on topological insulator coupled to ferromagnetic insulators
Source abstract
Abstract
We propose a spin current generator based on a topological insulator current-in-plane spin valve, consisting of a 3D topological insulator sandwiched between two ferromagnetic insulator layers. The “on” and “off” states of the spin current can be toggled by switching the magnetization configuration of the two ferromagnetic insulator layers which are coupled to the surface states of the topological insulator.
