Based on the phase time definition,we study theoretically the transmission coefficients and the spin-tunneling time in parabolic-well magnetic tunneling junction with a tunnel barrier in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction. The significant quantum size, quantum coherence, and Rashba spin-orbit interaction are considered simultaneously. It is found that the tunneling time strongly depends on the spin orientation of tunneling electrons. We also find that as the length of the semiconductor increases, the spin tunneling time shows curved increase. It exhibits useful instructions for the design of spin electronic devices.

This chapter introduces the concept of incoherent spin current. A diffusive spin current can be driven by spatial inhomogeneous spin density. Such spin flow is formulated using the spin diffusion equation with spin-dependent electrochemical potential. The chapter also proposes a solution to the problem known as the conductivity mismatch problem of spin injection into a semiconductor. A way to overcome the problem is by using a ferromagnetic semiconductor as a spin source; another is to insert a spin-dependent interface resistance at a metal–semiconductor interface.
