Spin-polarized transport through a zigzag-edge graphene flake embedded between two armchair nanoribbons electrodes
We study the coherent spin-polarized transport through a zigzag-edge graphene flake (ZGF), using Hubbard model in the nearest neighbor approximation within the framework of the Green function’s technique and Landauer formalism. The system considered consists of electrode/ (ZGF)/electrode, in which the electrodes are chosen to be armchair nanoribbons. The study was performed for two types of ele...
متن کاملManipulating spin-polarized photocurrents in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides.
Manipulating spin polarization of electrons in nonmagnetic semiconductors by means of electric fields or optical fields is an essential theme of the conceptual nonmagnetic semiconductor-based spintronics. Here we experimentally demonstrate an electric method of detecting spin polarization in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) generated by circularly polarized optical pumping. The...
متن کاملSpin Polarized Transport of Electrons in Metal Wires
Introduction Current traveling through a material can have a spin polarization; that is, there can exist more electrons in a current with spin up than spin down or vice versa. It has been discovered that a conducting or semiconducting material can be “injected” with a spinpolarized current. Passing a current through a ferromagnetic material can induce this spin-polarization, which remains as th...
متن کاملMetal-like Electrical Conductance in Boron Fullerenes
Electron transport properties of B-fullerenes, B80 and B100, are investigated with the use of the first-principles density functional theory (DFT), in conjunction with the Landauer-Büttiker formalism and compared with C-fullerene, C60, under similar conditions. The differential conductance and the tunnel current for B-fullerenes sandwiched between Au contacts are calculated to be much higher th...
متن کاملTheoretical Perspectives on Spintronics and Spin-Polarized Transport
Selected problems of fundamental importance for spintronics and spin-polarized transport are reviewed, some of them with a special emphasis on their applications in quantum computing and coherent control of quantum dynamics. The role of the solid-state environment in the decoherence of electron spins is discussed. In particular, the limiting effect of the spin-orbit interaction on spin relaxati...
