磁化石墨烯畴壁的自旋极化输运

Spin-polarized transport through domain wall in magnetized graphene

M. Khodas, I. A. Zaliznyak, D. E. Kharzeev

摘要:

原子级薄的二维蜂窝状结晶碳层(称为石墨烯)是一种很有前途的电子系统。它具有点状费米表面,对外部电势非常敏感。特别地,平行于石墨烯层的塞曼磁场分裂电子带,并产生粒子和空穴类型的完全自旋极化和几何全等的圆形费米表面。在存在电场的情况下,具有相反自旋的粒子和空穴沿相反方向漂移。这些现象可能是开发石墨烯基自旋电子器件的兴趣。将具有相反自旋极化的区域分离的畴壁(DW)是这种器件的基本元件。在这里,我们考虑的自旋极化载流子通过DW在石墨烯的弹道通道。我们还讨论了在石墨烯和相对论性夸克-胶子等离子体中产生自旋电流之间的类比,其中自旋极化电流是最近在RHIC研究的电荷分离现象的原因。

英文摘要:

Atomically thin two-dimensional layer of honeycomb crystalline carbon known as graphene is a promising system for electronics. It has a point-like Fermi surface, which is very sensitive to external potentials. In particular, Zeeman magnetic field parallel to the graphene layer splits electron bands and creates fully spin-polarized and geometrically congruent circular Fermi surfaces of particle and hole type. In the presence of electric field, particles and holes with opposite spins drift in opposite direction. These phenomena are likely to be of interest for developing graphene-based spintronic devices. A domain wall (DW) separating regions with opposite spin polarizations is a basic element of such a device. Here we consider a ballistic passage of spin-polarized charge carriers through DW in graphene. We also discuss the analogy between the generation of spin currents in graphene and in relativistic quark-gluon plasma, where the spin-polarized current is responsible for the phenomenon of charge separation studied recently at RHIC.
