We report on first-principles calculations of spin-dependent properties in graphene induced by its interaction with a nearby magnetic insulator (Europium oxide, EuO). The magnetic proximity effect results in spin polarization of graphene…
Gate-tunable spin-dependent properties could be induced in graphene at room temperature through magnetic proximity effect by placing it in contact with a metallic ferromagnet. Because strong chemical bonding with the metallic substrate…
Graphene has remarkable opportunities for spintronics due to its high mobility and long spin diffusion length, especially when encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). Here, for the first time, we demonstrate gate-tunable spin…
Graphene on an insulating ferromagnetic substrate---ferromagnetic insulator or ferromagnetic metal with a tunnel barrier---is expected to exhibit giant proximity exchange and spin-orbit couplings. We use a realistic transport model of…
We report on measurements of quantized conductance in gate-defined quantum point contacts in bilayer graphene that allow the observation of subband splittings due to spin-orbit coupling. The size of this splitting can be tuned from 40 to 80…
The unusual electronic properties of single-layer graphene make it a promising material system for fundamental advances in physics, and an attractive platform for new device technologies. Graphene's spin transport properties are expected to…
The proximity-induced couplings in graphene due to the vicinity of a ferromagnetic insulator are analyzed. We combine general symmetry principles and simple tight-binding descriptions to consider different orientations of the magnetization.…
We study the spin-resolved transport through magnetic nanostructures in monolayer and bilayer graphene. We take into account both the orbital effect of the inhomogeneous perpendicular magnetic field as well as the in-plane spin splitting…
We theoretically study the proximity spin-orbit coupling in graphene on transition-metal dichalcogenides monolayer stacked with arbitrary twist angles. We find that the relative rotation greatly enhances the spin splitting of graphene,…
Due to its two dimensional nature, ferromagnetism and charge doping can be induced by proximity and electric field effects in graphene. Taking advantage of these features, we propose an electrically engineered spin valve by combining two…
The introduction and control of ferromagnetism in graphene opens up a range of new directions for fundamental and applied studies. Several approaches have been pursued so far, such as introduction of defects, functionalization with adatoms,…
We investigate spin transport through ferromagnetic graphene vertical heterostructures where a sandwiched tunneling layer is either a normal or ferroelectric insulator. We show that the spin-polarization of the tunneling current is…
The manipulation of the electron spin degree of freedom is at the core of the spintronics paradigm, which offers the perspective of reduced power consumption, enabled by the decoupling of information processing from net charge transfer.…
We report a systematic first-principles investigation of the influence of different magnetic insulators on the magnetic proximity effect induced in graphene. Four different magnetic insulators are considered: two ferromagnetic europium…
Tunnelling of electrons in graphene-based junctions is studied theoretically. Graphene is assumed to be deposited either directly on a ferromagnetic insulator or on a few atomic layers of boron nitride which separate graphene from a…
We consider spin-dependent scatterers with large scattering cross-sections in graphene -a Zeeman-like and an intrinsic spin-orbit coupling impurity- and show that a gated ring around them can be engineered to produce an effcient control of…
We present a study on the lifting of degeneracy of the size-quantized energy levels in an electrostatically defined quantum point contact in bilayer graphene by the application of in-plane magnetic fields. We observe a Zeeman spin splitting…
The recent discovery of two-dimensional magnetic insulators has generated a great deal of excitement over their potential for nanoscale manipulation of spin or magnetism. One intriguing use for these materials is to put them in contact with…
We investigate magnetotransport in a ferromagnetic/normal/ferromagnetic graphene junction where a gate electrode is attached to the normal segment. It is shown that the charge conductance can be maximal at an antiparallel configuration of…
We study the spin dynamics of a ferromagnetic insulator on which graphene is placed. We show that the Gilbert damping is enhanced by the proximity exchange coupling at the interface. The modulation of the Gilbert damping constant is…
