β¦ Synopsis
We present a model that describes the spin injection across a single interface with two electrodes. The spin-injection rate across a typical hybrid junction made of ferromagnet (FM) and a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is found at the percentage level. We perform spin-injection-detection experiment on devices with two ferromagnetic contacts on a 2DEG conΓΏned in an InAs quantum well. A spin-injection rate of 4.5% is estimated from the measured magnetoresistance.

We theoretically study the spin-dependent electron transport in a two-dimensional electron gas modulated by ferromagnetic and Schottky metal stripes. The numerical results show that the large spin polarization can be achieved in such a device, and it is obviously dependent on the width of the Schott
