Abstract

Spin transport properties of a mesoscopic superconductor/ferromagnetic (S/F) junctions of a quantum device are investigated. The thermoelectric voltage as a function of magnetic field oscillations for different heater currents has been calculated. The dependence shows that by increasing the heater current, the oscillation first disappears, and then remarkably reappears inverted compared to low heater current. Also, the value of the thermo-power increases with increasing value of the barrier strength. Our result shows that the degree of spin polarization of the current can be unambiguously determined using Andreev reflection. Our result agrees qualitatively with those in the literature.
