Electron-hole asymmetry of spin injection and transport in single-layer graphene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spin-dependent properties of single-layer graphene (SLG) have been studied by nonlocal spin valve measurements at room temperature. Gate voltage dependence shows that the nonlocal magnetoresistance (MR) is proportional to the conductivity of the SLG, which is the predicted behavior for transparent ferromagnetic-nonmagnetic contacts. While the electron and hole bands in SLG are symmetric, gate voltage and bias dependence of the nonlocal MR reveal an electron-hole asymmetry in which the nonlocal MR is roughly independent of bias for electrons, but varies significantly with bias for holes.

In this paper, we demonstrated the utilization of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films as high performance hole injection layer in organic light-emitting diode (OLED). By using LB technique, the well-ordered and thickness-controlled RGO sheets are incorporated between the organic active layer and the transparent conducting indium tin oxide (ITO), leading to an increase of r...
متن کاملElectronic spin drift in graphene field-effect transistors.
We studied the drift of electron spins under an applied dc electric field in single layer graphene spin valves in a field-effect transport geometry at room temperature. In the metallic conduction regime (n approximately 3.5 x 10(16) m(-2)), for dc fields of about +/- 70 kV/m applied between the spin injector and spin detector, the spin valve signals are increased or decreased, depending on the ...
متن کاملChemical doping and electron-hole conduction asymmetry in graphene devices.
We investigate poly(ethylene imine) and diazonium salts as stable, complementary dopants on graphene. Transport in graphene devices doped with these molecules exhibits asymmetry in electron and hole conductance. The conductance of one carrier is preserved, while the conductance of the other carrier decreases. Simulations based on nonequilibrium Green's function formalism suggest that the origin...
متن کاملSpin-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...
