Here, we show that a simple transverse electron focusing setup can be used to detect such polarized current. It uses the amplitude's asymmetry of the spin-split transverse electron focusing peak to extract information about the electron's spin polarization. On the other hand, and depending on the quantum point contact geometry, including this one-body effect can be important when using the focusing setup to study many-body effects in quantum point contacts.5 pages, 5 figuresMesoscale and Nanoscale PhysicsDetection of spin polarized currents in quantum point contacts via transverse electron focusingtext
