Abstract

The invention relates to a spintronic device with a phase change material as a tunning layer, and particularly to a non-local spin injection device. The lowest end is a spin channel. Two ends of outside part above the spin channel are respectively provided with a common metal electrode which is deposited. Two tunneling layers are deposited at the middle part above the spin channel. Furthermore a ferromagnetic metal electrode is deposited on the tunneling layer. The spintronic device is characterized in that the tunneling layers are made of a material which can generate phase change through driving by temperature and illumination; and the device further comprises a temperature control module or an illumination control module. According to the phase change tunneling layer (such as vanadium dioxide), the resistance can be controlled by means of temperature and illumination. The tunneling resistance can be artificially regulated in an appropriate interval, thereby improving performance of the spintronic device.
