Probing the role of carbon solubility in transition metal catalyzing Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes growth
Juan-Manuel Aguiar-Hualde, Yann Magnin, Hakim Amara +1
Metal catalysts supporting the growth of Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes display different carbon solubilities and chemical reactivities. In order to specifically assess the role of c…
Majorana bound states in open quasi-1D and 2D systems with transverse Rashba coupling
N. Sedlmayr, J. M. Aguiar-Hualde, C. Bena
We study the formation of Majorana states in quasi-1D and 2D square lattices with open boundary conditions, with general anisotropic Rashba coupling, in the presence of an applied…
Flat Majorana bands in 2-d lattices with inhomogeneous magnetic fields: topology and stability
N. Sedlmayr, J. M. Aguiar-Hualde, C. Bena
In this paper we show that for a range of configurations of inhomogeneous magnetic fields it is possible to create flat bands of Majorana states localized on the edges of 2-d latti…
Signature of a topological phase transition in long SN junctions in the spin-polarized density of states
M. Guigou, N. Sedlmayr, J. M. Aguiar-Hualde +1
We investigate the spin texture of Andreev bound states and Majorana states in long SN junctions. We show that measuring the spin-polarized density of states (SPDOS) allows one to…
Taming the resistive switching in Fe/MgO/V/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions: An ab initio study
J. M. Aguiar-Hualde, M. Alouani
A possible mechanism for the resistive switching observed experimentally in Fe/MgO/V/Fe junctions is presented. Ab initio total energy calculations within the local density approxi…
Kondo effect in transport through molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces: from Fano dips to Kondo peaks
J. M. Aguiar-Hualde, G. Chiappe, E. Louis +1
The Kondo effect observed in recent STM experiments on transport through CoPc and TBrPP-Co molecules adsorbed on Au(111) and Cu(111) surfaces, respectively, is discussed within the…
