超小型石墨烯基器件的巨磁电阻效应

Giant magnetoresistance in ultra-small Graphene based devices

F. Muñoz-Rojas, J. Fernandez-Rossier, J. J. Palacios

摘要:

通过计算跨越桥接两个金属石墨烯电极的有限之字形石墨烯带的自旋极化电子输运,我们证明,作为原理证明,具有100%磁阻的设备可以完全由碳制成。在基态,一个短的锯齿形带是一个反铁磁绝缘体,当连接两个金属电极时,它充当抑制电导的隧道势垒。磁场的应用使带状物变成铁磁性和导电性,从而显著增加电极之间的电流。我们预测在液氮温度和10特斯拉或在液氦温度和300高斯在这个系统中的大的磁阻。

英文摘要:

By computing spin-polarized electronic transport across a finite zigzag graphene ribbon bridging two metallic graphene electrodes, we demonstrate, as a proof of principle, that devices featuring 100% magnetoresistance can be built entirely out of carbon. In the ground state a short zig-zag ribbon is an antiferromagnetic insulator which, when connecting two metallic electrodes, acts as a tunnel barrier that suppresses the conductance. Application of a magnetic field turns the ribbon ferromagnetic and conducting, increasing dramatically the current between electrodes. We predict large magnetoresistance in this system at liquid nitrogen temperature and 10 Tesla or at liquid helium temperature and 300 Gauss.
