摘要
We derive an expression for the spin current through a tunnel barrier in terms of many-body Green's functions. The spin cur-rent has two possible contributions. One is associated with angular momentum transfer due to spin-polarized charge current crossing the junction. If there are magnetic moments on both sides of the tunnel junction, due to spin accumulation or ferromagnetic ordering, then there is a second contribution related to the exchange coupling between the moments. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
