RESUMO

In the present work we studied properties of the spintronic transport of nanostructures formed by layers of diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) and conventional semiconductors with crossed fields applied. The electric field is in the growth direction and the magnetic field is perpendicular t o this one. We studied two configurations of nanostructures where the DMS is located in the barriers or in the well. We will show the possibility of the formation of a double quantum well like effective potential for different values of the applied fields intensities, barriers height and quantum well width. In this situation the system can be seen as a spintronic device called spin filter, since it can control the spin polarization in different regions of the nanostructure.
