The projects and published results in this group deal with spin transport in semiconductor devices.
We developed simulation code able to model Dresselhaus and Rashba effects due to spin-orbit couplings for an experimentally verified, ensemble self-consistent Monte Carlo semiconductor device simulator. We demonstrate the ability to coherently control the spin polarisation of electrons and the strain-sensitivity of the drain current in an InGaAs MOSFET transistor at room temperatures in simulation. The code is part of Swansea University’s finite element ensemble Monte Carlo simulation toolbox. A feasibility study on spin injection into dilute magnetic gallium nitride transistors on fabricating the materials has been conducted as well.
