A class of spin injection-precession ultrafast nanodevices

Abstract
Spin valve ultrafast spin injection devices are described: an amplifier, a frequency multiplier, and a square-law detector. Their operation is based on injection of spin polarized electrons from one ferromagnet to another through a semiconductor layer and spin precession of the electrons in the semiconductor layer in a magnetic field induced by a (base) current in an adjacent nanowire. The base current can control the emitter current between the magnetic layers with frequencies up to several 100 GHz.
