In this study, toward the realization of spin MOSFET, we fabricated a spin-valve device structure with a channel length of 68 nm for an all-epitaxial heterostructure consisting of Co/Fe/MgO/Ge:B/Ge(001) substrates to enhance the magnetoresistance ratio (MR ratio). The MR ratio of up to 0.55 % was obtained at 3 K, which is about 1000 times higher than the value predicted by the diffusive model, indicating that the MR ratio can be enhanced by reducing the channel length to 68 nm.
