Spin-dependent transport of relativistic electrons through graphene based double barrier (well) structures with ferromagnetic
electrodes have been theoretically investigated. Electron transmission with different spin states is strongly influenced by
the incident wave vector, the height (depth) of the barrier and the separation between them. When the angle of the incident
electrons is varied from zero to ±π/2, spin polarization varies from zero to 100% with characteristic oscillations that indicate
spin anisotropy. Due to Klein tunnelling, spin-polarization is always zero for normal incident electrons; high spin-polarization
only occurs at large incident angles. Because the resonance features in the spin-dependent transmission result from resonant
electron states in wells or hole states in barriers, the conductance can reach e2/h in this resonant-tunnelling structure. 相似文献

Based on the extended Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk (BTK) approach, we have investigated the coherent quantum transport in two-dimensional
electron gas/superconductor (2DEG/SC) double tunneling junctions in the presence of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC).
It is found that all the reflection coefficients in BTK theory as well as conductance spectra oscillate with the external
voltage and energy. The oscillation feature of conductance can be tuned largely by the RSOC for low insulating barriers, while
for high insulating barriers it is almost independent of the RSOC. These phenomena are essentially different from those found
in ferromagnet/superconductor double tunneling junctions. 相似文献

This study uses the tight-binding model to examine the ballistic transport of short and infinitely long bilayer nano-graphite
ribbons for different stacked structures, AA and AB, under perpendicularly applied gate and magnetic fields. In the small
bias region, the conduction of the AB-stacked ribbon is better than for the AA. Under a gate field with small bias, the AB-stacked
ribbon exhibits a significant current peak at the zero gate field point, similar to the graphene ribbon. On the contrary,
this current peak is not found in the AA-stacked case. Under a perpendicular magnetic field with small bias, the magnetoresistance
ratio in both stacked graphene ribbons are proportional to the square of the magnetic field. 相似文献

We study the dependence of the intrinsic conductance of a nanocontact on its shape by using the recursion-transfer-matrix
method. Hour-glass, torus, and spherical shapes are defined through analytic potentials, the latter two serving as rough models
for ring-like and spherical molecules, respectively. The sensitivity of the conductance to geometric details is analyzed and
discussed. Strong resonance effects are found for a spherical contact weakly coupled to electron reservoirs. 相似文献

We suggest a spin filter scheme using T-stub nanometric
crossjunctions patterned in two dimensional electron gases (2DEGs)
in the presence of spin orbit interaction (SOI).
We compare the effects of SOI arising from vertical confinement of charge carriers
in the well, Rashba or α-SOI, with SOI generated by lateral
confinement of the wire, β-SOI. We show that β coupling
can be more effective in generating a spin polarized current as
compared to α-SOI. We also compare the efficiency of the
T-stub filter with the one of the X shaped cross junction. 相似文献

We present numerical calculations of the spin transfer
torque resulting in current-induced domain wall motion. Rather than
the conventional micromagnetic finite difference or finite element
method, we use an atomistic/classical Heisenberg spin model
approach, which is well suited to study geometrically confined
domain walls. We compute the behaviour of domain walls in a one
dimensional chain when currents are injected using adiabatic and
non-adiabatic spin torque terms. Our results are compared to
analytical calculations and are found to agree very well for small
current densities. At larger current densities deviations are
observed, which can be attributed to the approximations used in the
analytical calculations. 相似文献

We have studied the energy level alignment at interfaces between clean ferromagnetic La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 and two archetype organic semiconductors, α-sexithiophene and copper-phthalocyanine, by combined X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. We observe the formation
of a large interface dipole at both studied interfaces and small hole injection barriers. In addition, our results indicate
a small chemical interaction between the organic materials and the La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 surface which leads to a pinning of the Fermi level and the relatively small hole injection barriers. 相似文献

Electrical conductance through various nanocontacts between
gold electrodes is studied by using the density functional theory, scalar-relativistic
pseudopotentials, generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation
energy and the recursion-transfer-matrix method along with channel
decomposition. The nanocontact is modeled with pyramidal fcc(100) tips and
1 to 5 gold atoms between the tips. Upon elongation of the contact by adding gold atoms
between the tips, the conductance at Fermi energy EF
evolves from G ≈ 3G0 to G ≈ 1G0 (G0 = 2e/h2).
Formation of a true one-atom point contact, with
G ≈ 1G0 and only one open channel, requires
at least one atom with coordination number 2 in the wire. Tips that share
a common vertex atom or tips with touching vertex atoms have three partially open conductance
channels at EF, and the symmetries of the channels
are governed by the wave functions of the tips.
The long 5-atom contact develops conductance oscillations and conductance
gaps in the studied energy range -3 ≤ E-EF ≤ 5 eV, which reflects oscillations
in the local density of electron states in the 5-atom linear “gold molecule"
between the electrodes, and a weak coupling of this “molecule" to the tips. 相似文献

Current-induced conformational switching in single-molecule junctions constitutes a fundamental process in molecular electronics.
Motivated by recent experiments on azobenzene derivatives, we study this process for molecules which exhibit two (meta)stable
conformations in the neutral state but only a single stable conformation in the ionic state. We derive and analyze appropriate
Fokker–Planck equations obtained from a density-matrix formalism starting from a generic model and present comprehensive analytical
and numerical results for the switching dynamics in general and the quantum yield in particular. 相似文献

ZnO is known as one of the best materials for the implementation of the random lasing effect, associated with mirror-less
laser emission in a simultaneously amplifying and highly scattering medium. Normally, the fabrication of this medium requires
a rather complicated procedure of deposition and thermal treatment of ZnO-based films on some specific substrates, yielding
wurtzite-orientation ZnO nanocrystals. We demonstrate a rapid synthesis of highly efficient ZnO-based random lasing spots
on a piece of Zn by employing the phenomenon of laser-induced air breakdown. Being ignited near the surface of a Zn target,
plasma of the air breakdown serves as a local reactor to locally transform its properties and thus form a film of well-packed
20–40 nm ZnO nanospheres. Exhibiting extremely high amplification and scattering, this medium is capable of generating the
random lasing effect within the exciton-based photoluminescent band. 相似文献

We demonstrate that graphene-based transparent and conductive thin films (GTCFs), fabricated by thermal reduction of graphite
oxide, have very similar electronic and structural properties as highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG). Electron spectroscopy
results suggest that the GTCFs are also semi-metallic and that the individual graphene sheets of the film are predominantly
oriented parallel to the substrate plane. These films may therefore be considered as a technologically relevant analogue to
HOPG electrodes, which cannot be easily processed into thin films. 相似文献

We have found a manifestation of spin-orbit Berry phase in the conductance
of a mesoscopic loop with Rashba spin-orbit coupling placed in an external magnetic field
perpendicular to the loop plane.
In detail, the transmission probabilities for a straight quantum wire
and for a quantum loop made of the same wire have been calculated and
compared with each other.
The difference between them has been investigated and identified with
a manifestation of spin-orbit Berry phase.
The non-adiabaticity effects at small radii of the loop have been found as well. 相似文献

Inorganic nanoparticles offer novel promising properties for biological sensing and imaging, as well as in therapeutics. However,
these applications are often complicated by the possible toxicity of conventional nanomaterials, arising as a result of inadequate
purification procedures of nanoparticles obtained via synthetic pathways using toxic or non-biocompatible substances. We review
novel femtosecond laser-assisted methods, which enable the preparation of metal nanomaterials in clean, biologically friendly
aqueous environment (“green” synthesis) and thus completely solve the toxicity problem. The proposed methods, including laser
ablation and fragmentation, make possible the production of stable metal colloids of extremely small size (∼2 nm) with a low
coefficient of variation (15–25%). Those nanoparticles exhibit unique surface chemistry and can be used for bio-imaging, cancer
treatment and nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. 相似文献

We investigate the occurrence of bound states in the
continuum (BICs) in serial structures of quantum dots coupled to an external
waveguide, when some characteristic length of the system is changed. By
resorting to a multichannel scattering-matrix approach, we show that BICs
do actually occur in two-dimensional serial structures, and that they are a
robust effect. When a BIC is produced in a two-dot system, BICs also occur
for several coupled dots. We also show that the complex dependence of the
conductance upon the geometry of the multi-dot system allows for a simple
picture in terms of the resonance pole motion in the multi-sheeted Riemann
energy surface. Finally, we show that in correspondence to zero-width states
for the open system one has a multiplet of degenerate eigenenergies for the
associated closed serial system, thereby generalizing results previously
obtained for single dots and two-dot structures. 相似文献

The spectra of a charged harmonic oscillator minimally coupled to a perpendicular magnetic field in the non-commutative plane
are studied by using the path integral formulation. We get the spectra in a mapping-independent way. Interestingly, we find
that the spectra have no continuous limit when the dimensionless parameter tends to zero. In order to get a finite result,
a truncation is inevitable. Finally, we give a reasonable explanation of truncation from the constrained theory point of view. 相似文献

We theoretically study the spatial behaviors of spin precessions modulated by an effective magnetic field in a two-dimensional
electron system with spin-orbit interaction. Through analysis of
interaction between the spin and the effective magnetic field, we find some laws of spin precession in the system, by which
we explain some previous phenomena of spin precession, and predict a controllable electron spin polarization wave in [001]-grown
quantum wells. The shape of the wave, like water wave, mostly are ellipse-like or circle-like, and the wavelength is anisotropic
in the quantum wells with two unequal coupling strengths of the Rashba and Dresselhaus interactions, and is isotropic in the
quantum wells with only one spin orbit interaction. 相似文献

Summary The MHD stability of a liquid jet (radiusR
0 and density ϱ) under the influence of self-gravitating force has traditionally been studied using a normal-mode type of analysis.
The dispersion relation is obtained and studied analytically and numerically. The axial magnetic fields inside and outside
the jet have always stabilizing effects. The transverse magnetic field has a destabilizing effect. It is found that the largest
