Hole spin relaxation in [001] strained asymmetric Si/SiGe and Ge/SiGe quantum wells

P. Zhang, M. W. Wu

Hole spin relaxation in [001] strained asymmetric Si/SiGe (Ge/SiGe) quantum wells is investigated in the situation with only the lowest hole subband…

Infinite spin diffusion length of any spin polarization along direction perpendicular to effective magnetic field from Dresselhaus and Rashba spin-orbit couplings with identical strengths in (001) GaAs quantum wells

K. Shen, M. W. Wu

In this note, we show that the latest spin grating measurement of spin helix by Koralek {\em et al.} [Nature {\bf 458}, 610 (2009)] provides strong evidence of the infinite spin di…

"Narrow" Graphene Nanoribbons Made Easier by Partial Hydrogenation

Hongjun Xiang, Erjun Kan, Su-Huai Wei +2

It is a challenge to synthesize graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with narrow widths and smooth edges in large scale. Our first principles study on the hydrogenation of GNRs shows that t…
