We measure spin transport in high mobility suspended graphene (μ ≈ 10(5)cm(2)/(V s)), obtaining a (spin) diffusion coefficient of 0.1 m(2)/s and giving a lower bound on the spin relaxation time (τ(s) ≈ 150 ps) and spin relaxation length (λ(s) = 4.7 μm) for intrinsic graphene.

Ferromagnetic electrodes with in-plane magnetizations inject spins parallel to the graphene layer. They are subject to Hanle spin precession under a magnetic field B applied perpendicular to the graphene layer.
