Based on the transfer-matrix method, the spin polarized transport properties through a ballistic graphene-based quantum tunneling junctions with the spin-orbit interaction have been investigated. It is found that the magnetoresistance (MR) oscillates with the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (RSOI) and the intrinsic spin-orbit interaction (ISOI). In addition, when the RSOI is present, the negative MR can be observed due to the spin-flip effect, whereas for the ISOI alone no such negative MR can be found. It is anticipated to apply such a phenomenon to design the electron devices based on the graphene.
We investigate theoretically transport characteristics in a graphene-based pseudospinmagnet/superconductor junction, including the s-wave and the d-wave pairing symmetry potential in the superconducting region. It is found that the pseudospin polarization, in sharp contrast to spin polarization in the graphene-based ferromagnet/superconductor junction, holds no influence on the specular Andreev reflection for a negligible Fermi energy. Furthermore, the Fano factor is crucially affected by the zero bias state. Therefore, we suggest here that the findings could shed light on the realization of graphene-based pseudospintronics devices and provide a new way to detect the specular Andreev reflection and the zero bias state in the actual experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
