Abstract

An optical spin-valve effect is observed using sub-bandgap internal photoemission to generate and collect hot electrons in magnetic multilayers grown on n-Si. Approximately 1.5%-2.5% magnetoresistance is observed in this two-terminal device at low temperature, and this effect is reduced only to 1.1% at room temperature. A simple model is presented to explain the results.
