Spin transport through a triangular graphene flake

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...

Fully spin-dependent transport of triangular graphene flakes

Spin-dependent transport through interacting graphene armchair nanoribbons

We investigate spin effects in transport across fully interacting, finite size graphene armchair nanoribbons (ACNs) contacted to collinearly spin-polarized leads. In such systems, the presence of short ranged Coulomb interaction between bulk states and states localized at the ribbon ends leads to novel spin-dependent phenomena. Specifically, the total spin of the low energy many-body states is ...

Spin Transport and Spin Precession in Graphene

Spin degree of freedom of electrons is one of the alternative state variables under consideration for processing information, beyond the charge based CMOS technology. The potential of spintronics based research lies in the possibilities for a new generation of computers that can be non-volatile, faster, smaller, and capable of simultaneous data storage and processing all with reduced energy con...
