We have investigated the polarization-resolved electroluminescence (EL) of a p-i-n GaAs/AlAs/InGaAs resonant tunneling diode (RTD) containing a GaMnAs (x = 5%) spin injector under high magnetic fields. We demonstrate that under hole resonant tunneling condition, the GaMnAs contact acts as an efficient spin-polarized source for holes tunneling through the device.
Polarization degrees up to 80% were observed in the device around the hole resonance at 2 K under 15 T. Our results could be valuable for improving the hole-spin injection in GaMnAs-based spintronic devices.
