Abstract

We have measured the transport behavior of Co/Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)/Co current-perpendicular-to-plane submicron spin-valve devices with ITO spacer thickness up to 20 nm, fabricated directly using a three-dimensional focused-ion beam etching technique. Using a simplified Valet-Fert model, we have determined a spin asymmetry ratio for Co of 0.55 and spin diffusion length of 6 +/- 1 nm in semiconducting ITO at room temperature.
