Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms in a honeycomb lattice, offers a number of
fundamentally superior qualities that make it a promising material for a wide range of …

Spintronics holds the promise for future information technologies. Devices based on
manipulation of spin are most likely to replace the current silicon complementary metal …

By using nonequilibrium Green's functions in combination with the density functional theory,
we investigate the electronic transport properties of edge hydrogenated zigzag-edged …

Using nonequilibrium Green's function method combined with density functional theory we
report bipolar spin diode behavior in zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs). Nearly±100 …

In this review, the classification of magnetoresistance effects, the electrical conduction
mechanisms without and with magnetic field, and the spintronics are briefly summarized …

By using nonequilibrium Green's functions in combination with the density functional theory,
we investigate the spin transport properties of manganese porphyrin-based spintronic …

Recently, antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials have attracted rapid attention, because they are
considered as outstanding candidates to replace the widely used ferromagnets in the next …

Giant magnetoresistance was first experimentally discovered in three-dimensional magnetic
tunnel junctions (MTJs) in the late 1980s and is of great importance in nonvolatile memory …

Based on the recursive Green-function method together with Landauer-Büttiker formalism,
we theoretically study the controllable spin-dependent electron transport properties by using …

The study of open-shell nanographenes has relied on a paradigm where spins are the only
low-energy degrees of freedom. Here we show that some nanographenes can host low …
