Abstract
We investigate spin dependence of the nonlocal transport induced by Majorana fermions in a one-dimensional ferromagnet–ferromagnetic-insulator–superconductor–ferromagnetic-insulator–ferromagnet junction on the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator. The results show that coupled Majorana fermions lead to the nonlocal transport processes including electron tunneling and crossed Andreev reflection, which can be tuned by adjusting the spin polarizations of the Majorana fermions. By manipulating the bands in the two ferromagnets, the nonlocal transport can be selected as either pure electron tunneling or pure crossed Andreev reflection, the transmission probability of which could be 100%. Furthermore, the pure electron tunneling and the pure crossed Andreev reflection are well controlled by the spin directions of the electron states in the two ferromagnets.
