Abstract

A spin-valve transistor with a GaAs/AlGaAs avalanche-multiplying collector is demonstrated with >1000% magnetocurrent variation and ≈ 35× amplification of the collector current. The intrinsic amplification of the magnetic-field sensitive collector current should allow fabrication of spin-valve transistors with high gain in a variety of materials.
