Methods to rectify the so generated AC current are discussed. An all-electric method of spin current detection is suggested, which measures the voltage on the gate in the vicinity of a 2D electron gas carrying a time dependent spin current. Both the generation and detection do not involve any optical or magnetic mediators.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2003-11-06T10:29:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin current generation", "ac gate", "narrow gap iii-v semiconductor quantum", "time dependent spin current", "time dependent gate" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
