摘要：
Transport in a single planar tunnel junction with electrodes made of a ferromagnetic semiconductor is analyzed theoretically in the zero-temperature limit. Tunneling current and both (in-plane and out-of-plane) components of the spin torque exerted on one of the ferromagnetic electrodes are determined as a function of the angle theta between magnetic moments of the electrodes. The influence of the bias voltage and spin splitting of the electron band (in both electrodes) on the spin torque components is analyzed numerically.
