All-electrical production of spin-polarized currents in carbon nanotubes: Rashba spin-orbit interaction
Hernán Santos, A. Latgé, J. E. Alvarellos +1
We study the effect of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in the quantum transport of carbon nanotubes with arbitrary chiralities. For certain spin directions, we find a strong spin…
Existence of nontrivial topologically protected states at grain boundaries in bilayer graphene: signatures and electrical switching
Wlodzimierz Jaskolski, Marta Pelc, Leonor Chico +1
Recent experiments [L. Ju et al., Nature, 2015, 520, 650] confirm the existence of gapless states at domain walls created in gated bilayer graphene, when the sublattice stacking is…
Divacancy-induced Ferromagnetism in Graphene Nanoribbons
W. Jaskolski, Leonor Chico, A. Ayuela
Zigzag graphene nanoribb ons have spin-polarized edges, anti-ferromagnetically coupled in the ground state with total spin zero. Customarily, these ribbons are made ferromagnetic b…
Symmetries of quantum transport with Rashba spin-orbit: Graphene spintronics
Leonor Chico, A. Latgé, Luis Brey
The lack of some spatial symmetries in planar devices with Rashba spin-orbit interaction opens the possibility of producing spin polarized electrical currents in absence of externa…
Electronic Properties of Twisted Trilayer Graphene
E. Suárez Morell, M. Pacheco, L. Chico +1
We study the electronic properties of a twisted trilayer graphene, where two of the layers have Bernal stacking and the third one has a relative rotation with respect to the AB-sta…
Interface States in Carbon Nanotube Junctions: Rolling up graphene
H. Santos, A. Ayuela, W. Jaskólski +2
We study the origin of interface states in carbon nanotube intramolecular junctions between achiral tubes. By applying the Born-von Karman boundary condition to an interface betwee…
