Fractional quantum conductance in carbon nanotubes
S. Sanvito, Y. -K. Kwon, D. Tománek +1
Using a scattering technique based on a parametrized linear combination of atomic orbitals Hamiltonian, we calculate the ballistic quantum conductance of multi-wall carbon nanotube…
Crossover between ballistic and diffusive regime of the spin-conductance and CPP-GMR in magnetic multilayered nanostructures
S. Sanvito, C. J. Lambert, J. H. Jefferson
We analyze the interplay between disorder and band structure in current perpendicular to the planes (CPP) giant magnetoresistance (GMR). We consider finite magnetic multilayers att…
Breakdown of the resistor model of CPP-GMR in magnetic multilayered nanostructures
S. Sanvito, C. J. Lambert, J. H. Jefferson
We study the effect on CPP GMR of changing the order of the layers in a multilayer. Using a tight-binding simple cubic two band model (s-d), magneto-transport properties are calcul…
