▎ 摘  要

Establishing ultimate spin current efficiency in graphene over industry-standard substrates can facilitate research and development exploration of spin current functions and spin sensing. At the same time, it can resolve core issues in spin relaxation physics while addressing the skepticism of graphene's practicality for planar spintronic applications. In this work, we reveal an exceptionally long spin communication capability of 45 mu m and highest to date spin diffusion length of 13.6 mu m in graphene on SiO2/Si at room temperature. Employing commercial chemical vapor deposited (CVD) graphene, we show how contact-induced surface charge l transfer doping and device doping contributions, as well as spin relaxation, can be quenched in extremely long spin channels and thereby enable unexpectedly long spin diffusion lengths in polycrystalline CVD graphene. Extensive experiments show enhanced spin transport and precession in multiple longest channels (36 and 45 mu m) that reveal the highest spin lifetime of similar to 2.5-3.5 ns in graphene over SiO2/Si, even under ambient conditions. Such performance, made possible due to our devices approaching the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling of similar to 20 mu eV in graphene, reveals the role of the D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation mechanism lin graphene channels as well as contact regions. Our record demonstration, fresh device engineering, and spin relaxation insights unlock the ultimate spin current capabilities of graphene on SiO2/Si, while the robust high performance of commercial CVD graphene can proliferate research and development of innovative spin sensors and spin computing circuits.
