Abstract
We explore spin dependent transport through a magnetic quantum wire which is attached to two non-magnetic metallic electrodes. We adopt a simple tight-binding Hamiltonian to describe the model where the quantum wire is attached to two semi-infinite one-dimensional non-magnetic electrodes. Based on single particle Green's function formalism all the calculations are performed numerically which describe two-terminal conductance and current-voltage characteristics through the wire. Quite interestingly we see that, beyond a critical system size probability of spin flipping enhances significantly that can be used to design a spin flip device. Our numerical study may be helpful in fabricating mesoscopic or nano-scale spin devices.
