Motivated by recent experiments of successfully carving out stable carbon atomic chains from graphene, we investigate a device structure of a carbon chain connecting two zigzag graphene nanoribbons with highly tunable spin-dependent…

We investigate the dependence of perpendicular and parallel spin transfer torque (STT) and tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) on the insulator barrier energy in the magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). We employed single orbit tight binding model…

Spin-dependent electronic transport through multiferroic Co/PbTiO$_{3}$/Co tunnel junctions is studied theoretically. Conductances calculated within the Landauer-B\"uttiker formalism yield both a large tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) and a…

A simple model based on the divide and conquer rule and tight-binding (TB) approximation is employed for studying the role of finite size effect on the electronic properties of elongated graphene nanoribbon (GNR) heterojunctions. In our…

Tunneling amplitude through magnetic breakdown (MB) gap is considered for two bands Fermi surfaces illustrated in many organic metals. In particular, the S-matrix associated to the wave-function transmission through the MB gap for the…

Using first-principles method and Boltzmann theory, we provide an accurate prediction of the electronic band structure and thermoelectric transport properties of alpha-MgAgSb. Our calculations demonstrate that only when an appropriate…

We present extensive Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STM/S) measurements at low temperatures in the multiband superconductor MgB$_2$. We find a similar behavior in single crystalline samples and in single grains, which clearly shows the…

Several studies have so far investigated transport properties of strongly correlated systems. Interesting features of these materials are the lack of resistivity saturation well beyond the Mott-Ioffe-Regel limit and the scaling of the…

A method is introduced to isolate and measure the electrical transport properties of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) aligned on an ST-cut quartz, from room temperature down to 2 K. The diameter and chirality of the…

We propose to correlate transmittance maps and spectral-density maps of planar junctions, in order to analyze quantitatively and in detail spin-dependent transport calculations. Since spectral-density maps can be resolved with respect to…

In the present work we propose that a one-dimensional quantum heterostructure composed of magnetic and non-magnetic atomic sites can be utilized as a spin filter for a wide range of applied bias voltage. A simple tight-binding framework is…

Accurate orthogonal tight-binding Hamiltonians are constructed for ferromagnetic SrRuO$_3$ and the layered perovskite superconductor, Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ by fitting to all-electron full-potential local density band structures obtained by the…

Finite-temperature calculations are relevant for rationalizing material properties yet they are computationally expensive because large system sizes or long simulation times are typically required. Circumventing the need for performing many…

We calculate the temperature dependence of the transport properties of heavy-fermion systems such as resistivity, optical conductivity, thermoelectric power, the electronic part of the thermal conductivity, and the "figure of merit." The…
