The concept of a novel graphene P-I-N junction switching device with a nanoribbon is proposed, and its basic operation is demonstrated in an experiment. The concept aims to optimize the operation scheme for graphene transistors toward a…

We theoretically study the electronic transport in the monolayer of dithiolated phenylene vinylene oligomeres coupled to the (111) surfaces of gold electrodes. We use non-equilibrium Green functions (NEGF) and density functional theory(DFT)…

Gaussian deformation in graphene structures exhibits an interesting effect in which flower-shaped confinement states are observed in the deformed region [Carrillo-Bastos et al., Phys. Rev. B 90 041411 (2014)]. To exploit such a deformation…

This comprehensive study investigates charge transport through the multiple end zigzag edge states of finite-size armchair graphene nanoribbons/boron nitride nanoribbons (n-AGNR/w-BNNR) junctions under a longitudinal electric field, where n…

Here we analyze the electron transport properties of a device formed of two crossed graphene nanoribbons with zigzag edges (ZGNRs) in a spin state with total magnetization different from zero. While the ground state of ZGNRs has been shown…

We investigate the spin-resolved transport in a two-terminal zigzag graphene nanoribbon device with two independent gate induced Rashba spin-orbit coupling regions and in the presence of strain. By employing a recursive Green's function…

The shortcomings of mono-component systems, e.g., the gapless nature of graphene, the lack of air-stability in phosphorene, etc. have drawn great attention toward stacked materials expected to show interesting electronic and optical…
