Abstract
An analog of the Datta-Das spin field-effect transistor (FET) is investigated, which is all graphene and based on the valley degree of freedom of electrons/holes. The “valley FET” envisioned consists of a quantum wire of gapped graphene (channel) sandwiched between two armchair graphene nanoribbons (source and drain), with the following correspondence to the spin FET: valley (K and ) ↔ spin (up and down), armchair graphene nanoribbons ↔ ferromagnetic leads, graphene quantum wire ↔ semiconductor quantum wire, valley-orbit interaction ↔ Rashba spin-orbit interaction. The device works as follows. The source (drain) injects (detects) carriers in a specific valley polarization. A side gate electric field is applied to the channel and modulates the valley polarization of carriers due to the valley-orbit interaction, thus controlling the amount of current collected at the drain. The valley FET is characterized by (i) smooth interfaces between leads and the channel, (ii) strong valley-orbit interaction for electrical control of drain current, and (iii) vanishing interband valley-flip scattering. By its analogy to the spin FET, the valley FET provides a potential framework to develop low-power FETs for graphene-based nanoelectronics. Macbook travel powerpoint template free download.
Spin-FET is a three terminal device with spin polarized current flowing between drain and source terminals and the gate terminal is used to control this current 13. The structure of spin-FET is shown in Fig. 1 (a), in which the source and drain terminals are made of ferromagnetic material (like iron, cobalt etc.).
- We revisit the spin-injected field effect transistor (spin-FET) in a framework of the lattice model by applying the recursive lattice Green's function approach. In the one-dimensional case the results of simulations in coherent regime reveal noticeable differences from the celebrated Datta-Das model, which lead us to an improved treatment with.
- A spin FET according to an example of the present invention includes a magnetic pinned layer whose magnetization direction is fixed, a magnetic free layer whose magnetization direction is changed.

Magnetism is a property that had been missingfrom graphene’s impressive list of physical properties – until now. Owing to its unconventional magnetic properties, graphene has been touted as a promising material for spintronics applications. The ambition of the EU-funded SPRING project is to develop an all-graphene platform, where spins can be used for transporting, storing and processing information. Researchers from different disciplines will collaborate to fabricate atomically precise open-shell graphene nanostructures, and manipulate their electron spin and charge, and nuclear spin state. The aim is to test the potential of graphene as a fundamental building block Download for free wirecast macbook pro. for spintronic devices. Macbook air 7,2 aht .dmg download.
