Abstract :
In this paper, we fabricate a novel high gain silicon based spin transistor and measured the minority carrier transport in the silicon. When measured with a magnetic field applied in the plane of the transistor and perpendicular to the direction of the current flow, the I-V characteristics show a variation in the collector current causing the transistor to behave as a magnetically tunable device with a field dependent gain.
