Linear Scaling Quantum Transport Methodologies
Zheyong Fan, Jose Hugo Garcia, Aron W. Cummings +5
In recent years, predictive computational modeling has become a cornerstone for the study of fundamental electronic, optical, and thermal properties in complex forms of condensed m…
Spin Proximity Effects in Graphene/Topological Insulator Heterostructures
Kenan Song, David Soriano, Aron W. Cummings +3
Enhancing the spin-orbit interaction in graphene, via proximity effects with topological insulators, could create a novel 2D system that combines nontrivial spin textures with high…
Electrical and thermal transport in coplanar polycrystalline graphene-hBN heterostructures
J. E. Barrios Vargas, B. Mortazavi, A. W. Cummings +5
We present a theoretical study of electronic and thermal transport in polycrystalline heterostructures combining graphene (G) and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) grains of varying si…
Spin transport in graphene/transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures
Jose H. Garcia, Marc Vila, Aron W. Cummings +1
Since its discovery, graphene has been a promising material for spintronics: its low spin-orbit coupling, negligible hyperfine interaction, and high electron mobility are obvious a…
One-dimensional ferromagnetic edge contacts to two-dimensional graphene/h-BN heterostructures
Bogdan Karpiak, André Dankert, Aron W. Cummings +3
We report the fabrication of one-dimensional (1D) ferromagnetic edge contacts to two-dimensional (2D) graphene/h-BN heterostructures. While aiming to study spin injection/detection…
Grain boundary-induced variability of charge transport in hydrogenated polycrystalline graphene
Jose E. Barrios Vargas, Jesper T. Falkenberg, David Soriano +3
Chemical functionalization has proven to be a promising means of tailoring the unique properties of graphene. For example, hydrogenation can yield a variety of interesting effects,…
