  • Abstract
    In this report, we have presented measurements of spin transport in Antimony (Sb) films which is known as a semimetal. The coercivity of each ferromagnetic film has been checked by measuring the anisotropic magnetoresistance. Four different orientation combinations of magnetization can be made by sweeping the magnetic field in parallel with the ferromagnetic electrode axis. From this effect, we conclude that spin polarized current can flow through the amorphous Sb films.
