Spin transport is strongly related to the spin polarization (P) of materials. Half-metallic ferromagnets, or half metals, with 100% spin polarization, are of interest as spin injector, promising a high efficiency; but also as a superconducting spin transport channel between two superconducting electrodes, in which spin-poalrized triplets are generated and exist over long distance.
