Description

The low-energy electronic spin precession is measured in the molecular field of a CoAl thin film. Designed to have a low Curie temperature, the variation of the CoAl molecular field results in an electronic spin precession angle that varies with temperature. The behavior is observed for injection energies between 0.9 and 1.2 eV and the results are explained on the basis of an exchange field varying with temperature.
