A continuum model for the effective spin orbit interaction in graphene is derived from a tight-binding model which includes the $\pi$ and $\sigma$ bands. We analyze the combined effects of the intra-atomic spin-orbit coupling, curvature,…

We investigate the proximity spin-orbit and exchange couplings in ABA and ABC trilayer graphene encapsulated within monolayers of semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides and the ferromagnetic semiconductor Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$.…

We study the effect of the spin-orbit interaction on heavy holes confined in a double quantum dot in the presence of a magnetic field of arbitrary direction. Rich physics arise as the two hole states of different spin are not only coupled…

Using the non-equilibrium Green's functions formalism in a tight binding model, the spin-dependent transport in armchair graphene nanoribbon (GNR) structures controlled by a ferromagnetic gate is investigated. Beyond the oscillatory…

Graphene has been identified as a promising material with numerous applications, particularly in spintronics. In this paper we investigate the peculiar features of spin excitations of magnetic units deposited on graphene nanoribbons and how…

Graphene nanoflakes are interesting because electrons are naturally confined in these quasi-zero-dimensional structures, whereas confinement in bulk graphene would require a band gap. Vacancies inside the graphene lattice lead to localized…

We examine the possibility of using graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with directly substituted chromium atoms as spintronic device. Using density functional theory, we simulate a voltage bias across a constructed GNR in a device setup, where a…

We study graphene ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet (F/S/F) nanostructures via a microscopic self-consistent Dirac Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism. We show that as a result of proximity effects, experimentally accessible spin switching…

The long spin-diffusion length, spin-lifetimes and excellent optical absorption coefficient of graphene provide an excellent platform for building opto-electronic devices as well as spin-based logic in a nanometer regime. In this study, by…

We perform time-dependent simulations of spin exchange for an electron pair in laterally coupled quantum dots. The calculation is based on configuration interaction scheme accounting for spin-orbit (SO) coupling and electron-electron…

We examine spin-dependent displacement of a single electron, resulting in separation and relocation of the electron wavefunction components, and thus charge parts, corresponding to opposite spins. This separation is induced by a pulse of an…

We investigate theoretically the combined effects of the electron-electron and the Rashba spin-orbit interactions on two electrons confined in quasi-one-dimensional AlInSb-based double quantum dots. We calculate the two-electron wave…

In the presence of the Hubbard interaction, graphene zigzag nanoribbons have spontaneous edge magnetism with anti-parallel configuration, whose amplitude can be tuned by a transversal electric field. As the electric field increases or…

Spin splitting of the energy spectrum of single-layer graphene on Au/Ni(111) substrate has been recently reported. I show that eigenstates of spin-orbit coupled graphene are polarized in-plane and perpendicular to electron momentum $\bf k$;…

Electron spin relaxation in graphene on a substrate is investigated from the fully microscopic kinetic spin Bloch equation approach. All the relevant scatterings, such as the electron-impurity, electron--acoustic-phonon,…

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…

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…

Transition metal compounds with the $(t_{2g})^4$ electronic configuration are expected to be nonmagnetic atomic singlets both in the weakly interacting regime due to spin-orbit coupling, as well as in the Coulomb dominated regime with…

A nanodevice capable of separating spins of two electrons confined in a quantum dot formed in a gated semiconductor nanowire is proposed. Two electrons confined initially in a single quantum dot in the singlet state are transformed into the…

We present an elaborate and systematic study of the conductance properties of a zigzag bilayer graphene nanoribbon modeled by a Kane-Mele (KM) Hamiltonian. The interplay of the Rashba and the intrinsic spin-orbit couplings with the edge…
