Claim:
1. A spin transport channel comprising a conductive layer; a dielectric layer contacting the conductive layer, the dielectric layer including at least one of a tantalum oxide, hafnium oxide, titanium oxide, and nickel oxide; an intermediate spin layer contacting the dielectric layer, the intermediate spin layer including at least one of copper and silver, wherein the conductive layer is more electrochemically inert than the intermediate spin layer; and a polarizer layer contacting the intermediate spin layer, the polarizer layer including at least one of a nickel-iron based material, iron, and cobalt based material, wherein the conductive layer and intermediate layer are disposed on opposite sides of the dielectric layer, wherein the dielectric layer and the polarizer layer are disposed on opposite sides of the intermediate spin layer, wherein the intermediate spin layer is arranged to form a conducting path through the dielectric layer configured to transport a plurality of electrons, wherein each of the plurality of electrons maintains a polarized electron spin.
