Transport properties of armchair graphene nanoribbon junctions between graphene electrodes.
The transmission properties of armchair graphene nanoribbon junctions between graphene electrodes are investigated by means of first-principles quantum transport calculations. First the dependence of the transmission function on the size of the nanoribbon has been studied. Two regimes are highlighted: for a small applied bias transport takes place via tunneling and the length of the ribbon is t...
متن کاملHalf - metallic Armchair Graphene Nanoribbon
Submitted for the MAR10 Meeting of The American Physical Society Half-metallic Armchair Graphene Nanoribbon FUMIYUKI ISHII, KEISUKE SAWADA, MINEO SAITO, Kanazawa University — Among a variety of applications of graphenes, spintronics applications are considered to be hopeful. For an example, spin transport has been experimentally observed by using graphene layers [1]. There are two types of shap...
متن کاملSpintronic Transport in Armchair Graphene Nanoribbon with Ferromagnetic Electrodes: Half-Metallic Properties
Utilizing first-principles theory, we demonstrate that half-metallicity can be realized in a junction composed of non-magnetic armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR) and ferromagnetic Ni electrodes. The half-metallic property originates from the AGNR energy gap of the up spin located at the Fermi energy, while large electronic states are generated for the down spin. By altering the interlayer dist...
متن کاملTransport properties of graphene nanoribbon heterostructures
We study the electronic and transport properties of heterostructures formed by armchair graphene nanoribbons with intersections of finite length. We describe the system by a tight-binding model and calculate the density of states and the conductance within the Green’s function formalism based on real-space renormalization techniques. We show the apparition of interface states and bound states i...
متن کاملTransport properties of two finite armchair graphene nanoribbons
: In this work, we present a theoretical study of the transport properties of two finite and parallel armchair graphene nanoribbons connected to two semi-infinite leads of the same material. Using a single Π-band tight binding Hamiltonian and based on Green's function formalisms within a real space renormalization techniques, we have calculated the density of states and the conductance of these...
