Giant growth of the differential resistance has been observed in a tunnel junction consisting of superconducting lead with Heusler’s ferromagnetic alloy Co2CrAl for low bias voltages. This effect is attributed to the appearance of a nonequilibrium state in the lead film as a result of spin injection into the superconductor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
