Miniband transport and oscillations in semiconductor superlattices
We present and analyse solutions of a recent derivation of a drift-diffusion model of miniband transport in strongly coupled superlattices. The model is obtained from a single-miniband Boltzmann–Poisson transport equation with a BGK (Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook) collision term by means of a consistent Chapman–Enskog expansion. The reduced drift-diffusion equation is solved numerically and travelling ...
متن کاملTopological spin and valley pumping in silicene
We propose to realize adiabatic topological spin and valley pumping by using silicene, subject to the modulation of an in-plane ac electric field with amplitude Ey and a vertical electric field consisting of an electrostatic component and an ac component with amplitudes and . By tuning and , topological valley pumping or spin-valley pumping can be achieved. The low-noise valley and spin current...
متن کاملSpin- and Valley-Dependent Electronic Structure in Silicene Under Periodic Potentials
We study the spin- and valley-dependent energy band and transport property of silicene under a periodic potential, where both spin and valley degeneracies are lifted. It is found that the Dirac point, miniband, band gap, anisotropic velocity, and conductance strongly depend on the spin and valley indices. The extra Dirac points appear as the voltage potential increases, the critical values of w...
متن کاملThe structural and density state calculation of B Nitrogen doped silicene nano flake
In this paper, we study the effect of single Boron/Nitrogen impurityatom on electronic properties of a silicene nano flake. Our calculations are basedon density functional theory by using Gaussian package. Here, one Si atom insilicene nano flake substitutes with a Boron/Nitrogen atom. The results show thatsubstitution of one Si atom with single Boron/Nitrogen atom increases distanceof impurity ...
متن کاملElectrically controllable sudden reversals in spin and valley polarization in silicene
We study the spin and valley dependent transport in a silicene superlattice under the influence of a magnetic exchange field, a perpendicular electric field and a voltage potential. It is found that a gate-voltage-controllable fully spin and valley polarized current can be obtained in the proposed device, and the spin and valley polarizations are sensitive oscillatory functions of the voltage p...
