Description

We study the effect of spin accumulation in ferromagnetic double tunnel junctions based on a simple model. The analytical results for typical cases show that spin accumulation enhances the tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) effect and furthermore affects electric potential of the center electrode. These effects are possibly used for the detection of spin accumulation in ferromagnetic double tunnel junctions.
