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 کاملHigh-Speed Ternary Half adder based on GNRFET
Superior electronic properties of graphene make it a substitute candidate for beyond-CMOSnanoelectronics in electronic devices such as the field-effect transistors (FETs), tunnel barriers, andquantum dots. The armchair-edge graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs), which have semiconductor behavior,are used to design the digital circuits. This paper presents a new design of ternary half a...
متن کاملSurface solitons at the edges of graphene nanoribbons
We demonstrate numerically that armchair graphene nanoribbons can support vibrational localized states in the form of surface solitons. Such localized states appear through self-localization of the vibrational energy along the edge of the graphene nanoribbon, and they decay rapidly inside the structure. We find five types of such solitary waves including in-plane and out-of-plane edge breathers...
متن کاملQuantum phase transitions and topological proximity effects in graphene nanoribbon heterostructures.
Topological insulators are bulk insulators that possess robust chiral conducting states along their interfaces with normal insulators. A tremendous research effort has recently been devoted to topological insulator-based heterostructures, in which conventional proximity effects give rise to a series of exotic physical phenomena. Here we establish the potential existence of topological proximity...
