A DFT Study on the Electronic Structure of In-Plane Heterojunctions of Graphene and Hexagonal Boron Nitride Nanoribbons

Ramiro M. dos Santos, William F. Giozza, Rafael T. de Sousa Júnior +3

The structural similarity between hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and graphene nanoribbons allows for the formation of heterojunctions with small chain stress. The combination of th…

Evaluating the Applicability of Bandwidth Allocation Models for EON Slot Allocation

Rafael F. Reale, Romildo M. S. Bezerra, Gilvan Duraes +3

Bandwidth Allocation Models (BAMs) configure and handle resource allocation (bandwidth, LSPs, fiber, slots) in networks in general (IP/MPLS/DS-TE, optical domain, other). In this p…

Oscillatory behavior of the domain wall dynamics in a curved cylindrical magnetic nanowire

R. Moreno, V. L. Carvalho-Santos, A. P. Espejo +3

Understanding the domain wall dynamics is an important issue in modern magnetism. Here we present results of domain wall displacement in curved cylindrical nanowires at a constant…

Vortex-antivortex pairs induced by curvature in toroidal nanomagnets

Smiljan Vojkovic, Vagson L. Carvalho-Santos, Jakson M. Fonseca +1

We show that the curvature of nanomagnets can be used to induce chiral textures in the magnetization field. Among the phenomena related to the interplay between geometry and magnet…

Spin wave vortex from the scattering on Bloch point solitons

Vagson L. Carvalho-Santos, Ricardo Gabriel Elías, Alvaro S. Núñez

The interaction of a spin wave with a stationary Bloch point is studied. The topological non-trivial structure of the Bloch point manifests in the propagation of spin waves endowin…

Berry phases and zero-modes in toroidal topological insulator

J. M. Fonseca, V. L. Carvalho-Santos, W. A. Moura-Melo +1

An effective Hamiltonian describing the surface states of a toroidal topological insulator is obtained, and it is shown to support both bound-states and charged zero-modes. Actuall…

Spin waves scattering on a Bloch point

R. G. Elías, V. L. Carvalho-Santos, A. S. Núñez +1

We show that, after a transformation, the dynamics of linear perturbations (spin waves) around a singular Bloch point soliton is formally equivalent to a quantum system of an elect…

Topological magnetic solitons on a paraboloidal shell

P. S. C. Vilas-Boas, R. G. Elias, D. Altbir +2

We study the influence of curvature on the exchange energy of skyrmions and vortices on a paraboloidal surface. It is shown that such structures appear as excitations of the Heisen…
