Spin diffusion and magnetoresistance in ferromagnet/topological-insulator junctions

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study spin and charge diffusion in metallic-ferromagnet/topological-insulator junctions. The coupled diffusion equations are derived perturbatively with respect to the strength of the interlayer tunneling. We calculate spin accumulation in the ferromagnet and junction magnetoresistance associated with a current bias along the interface.
