Abstract Research in the spintronics community has been intensively stimulated by the proposal of the spin field-effect transistor (SFET), which has the potential for combining the data storage and process in a single device. Here we report the spin dependent transport on a Fe3O4/GaAs based lateral structured device. Parallel and antiparallel states of two Fe3O4 electrodes are achieved. A clear MR loop shows the perfect butterfly shape at room temperature, of which the intensity decreases with the reducing current, showing the strong bias-dependence. Understanding the spin dependent transport properties in this architecture has strong implication in further development of the spintronic devices for room-temperature SFET.

A low-cost and green-synthesized zinc oxide nanostructured particles are extensively studied owing to their remarkable and ample characteristics with less toxicity and eco-friendly approach. The present work comprehends the green synthesis of ZnO nanostructured particles using bougainvillea leaf extract-arbitrated microwave-assisted synthesis and their use in field effect transistor for nitrogen dioxide sensing at room temperature. The as-synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using analytical techniques; XRD determined the pure crystallite structure with no impurities, SEM confirmed the spherical shape of nanoparticles with ~20 nm (average particle size) and the atomic weight percentage were analyzed using EDAX, notable photophysical properties were revealed from absorption and emission spectra performed using UV-visible spectroscopy. Poly(3-hexylthiophene) and ZnO nanoparticles were employed in the field effect transistor (p-type) for NO2 sensing at room temperature with the mobility (field-effect) of ~10-4 cm2 V-1 s-1. The sensitivity of the fabricated OFET device was extracted from the transistor characteristics (at Vgs = -30 V and Vds = -40 V) found to be ~4.8 × 10-3 nA/ppm. The device exhibited engrossing characteristics such as excellent recoverability (> 95%), with ultrafast response time (< 30 s) and greater sensitivity with high stability as can be assessed from the electrical characteristics.

Spin-dependent transport properties of Fe3O4 spheres with diameters from 200 nm to 900 nm have been investigated and polyethylene glycol (PEG) exists on the surface of Fe3O4 particles. The nonlinear I–V curve became obvious with the increase of Fe3O4 diameter, which indicated the tunneling barrier height decreases with the increasing diameter. The magnetoresistance (MR) can reach −13% with an applied low field of 0.2 T at room temperature. With the diameter increase, the MR decreases and the required applied field increases. Moreover, the decrease of MR with the bias voltage increase can be attributed to the spin-dependent tunneling effect through the insulating surface layer of Fe3O4 and PEG.
