摘要:
Inducing magnetism for arsenene is important for developing high-performance spintronic devices. Here, we investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of armchair arsenene nanoribbons doped with transition metal Mn atom by the ab initio electronic structure calculations and quantum transport simulations. It is found that such structures are stable by calculated formation energy and molecular dynamics simulation. Magnetic states can be obtained by doping Mn atom in such ribbons at different doping-positions with the distance from the Mn atom to the ribbon edges. AAsNR-Mn experiences a transition from a half-semiconductor to a half-metal by applying an external electric field. Moreover, it possesses an outstanding magnetic device nature, such as perfect spin filtering effect (100%), and a spin-valve feature with giant magnetoresistance (GMR)approaching 106%. Our calculation indicates AAsNRs-Mn has a promising application for multifunctional spintronic devices. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd

摘要:
Based on first principles calculation method, we design and investigate the spin transport properties of two type heterostructures based on zigzag silicene nanoribbons (ZSiNRs). The first one consists of hydrogen-terminated ZSiNR (ZSiNR-H) and Rx-terminated ZSiNR (ZSiNR-Rx), here, Rx = O, S, P. The rectification behavior can be observed for heterostructures consisting of ZSINR-H and ZSiNR-O (ZSiNR-S). The second one can be fabricated with a ZSiNR-Rx central scatter region between two ZSiNR-H electrodes. The results show that this device could maintain its good spin filtering effect for ZSiNR-O model in parallel (P) and antiparallel (AP) spin configuration with large bias range. Then we further investigate the spin-dependent transport with various length of ZSiNR-O region, and find that better spin filtering effect (near 100% spin polarization) can be observed for longer ZSiNR-O region. ZSiNR-S model show analogous spin filtering effect. However, neither rectification behavior nor spin filtering effect arise for ZSiNR-P models. (C) 2018 Published by Elsevier B.V.

摘要:
Based on the first-principles method, the electronic spin transport properties of terphenyl molecule bridging in zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) electrodes with three connecting linkages were investigated, including dangling, heptagon, and pentagon-linkages. For the pentagon-linkage system, we observed a perfect spin filtering effect in the parallel (P) configuration (at almost 100% spin polarization), with the heptagon-linkages system following next (85-95% spin polarization), however, the spin filtering effect is almost negligible for the dangling-linkages system. In the antiparallel (AP) configuration, the pentagon- and heptagon-linkage systems also showed a high spin filtering effect. The terphenyl molecule was then replaced by carbon chains based on the pentagon-linkages, and these devices also show a perfect spin filtering effect (100% spin polarization). Finally, the thermally induced spin transport for the carbon chains model with pentagon-linkages was explored, and this system exhibits almost 100% thermal spin polarization. © The Royal Society of Chemistry.

摘要:
The issue of temperature distribution is significant in the research of PV/T collectors due to the inherent negative temperature characteristics of solar cells. In this paper, a three-dimensional thermal model of a water-cooled flat-panel PV/T collector with serpentine tube is established using the finite element method, which the simulation accuracy is verified by the experimental data. We investigate the effect of multiple factors on the temperature distribution, including tube spacing, absorber materials, inlet velocity and tube row arrangement, respectively. Our results show that reducing tube spacing is the most effective way to increase uniformity of temperature distribution, and using absorber materials with better thermal properties can improve the temperature distribution partly. However, increasing the fluid inlet velocity has little effect on establishing a uniform temperature field though it can reduce the plate temperature. Temperature is hardly affected by the tube row arrangement, and uniform temperature field cannot be obtained with more bends.

摘要:
Based on the first-principles method, the magnetic properties for zigzag–edge graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) junctions are investigated. The results show the system had the ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic ground state depending on the connection sites between ZGNR electrodes and the central ZGNR. The junction displays a metallic behavior when the central ZGNR is connected at the middle site of electrodes with a ferromagnetic state, but shows obvious spin semiconductor feature when the connection site is shifted to the edge of the ZGNR. For the antiferromagnetic states, all models show a semiconductor behavior, which originates from the spin-degenerate edge states. While for the antiparallel spin configuration, the spin density of the central ribbon is affected by connection sites, and it shows weaker little by little with the central ribbon moving from bottom to the middle site, which is different obviously from ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic state. When one edge state of the central ZGNR is broken, bipolar spin semiconductor features can be obtained with different band gaps at suitable connection sites. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

摘要:
Spintronic systems exploit the fact that the electron current is composed of spin-up and spin-down carriers, which are more easily disturbed than electronic systems. Here, we investigate the spin transport properties of a single phenalenyl or pyrene molecule connected to zigzag graphene nanoribbon electrodes by using the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism with density functional theory. We found the difference of the symmetry on these two molecules will bring a remarkable effect on the spin transport properties of the devices. The spin-resolved currents of the single pyrene molecular device are much lower than that of the single phenalenyl molecular device when they all connected to electrodes symmetrically. In addition, we found the change of the connected site will decrease the spin-resolved currents of the phenalenyl-based molecular device drastically, but had no longer any influence with the pyrene-based molecular device. The results will be helpful for us to further understand the transfer of the spin-carriers in the spintronic systems. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
Constructing periodic nanoscale holes on graphene to form graphene nanomeshes (GNMs) is an effective way for opening band gaps. The effect of different hydrogen terminations on the structural and electronic properties in the triangular array graphene nanomeshes is investigated systematically from first-principles. The calculated results from the formation energy, Gibbs free energy, and phonon band structure reveal that the di-hydrogenated sp<sup>3</sup>hybridization is the most favorable structure for the hole edges of GNMs except that the other hydrogen terminations may be stable under extremely-poor hydrogen conditions. The electronic properties of GNMs are very sensitive to edge hydrogen terminations, the GNM could be a semimetal, semiconductor, magnetic half-semimetal, or Bipolar Magnetic Semiconductor (BMS) by varying the edge hydrogen terminations, and the GNMs terminated by di-hydrogenation could open a sizable band gap due to the stronger on-site potential between holes, while the gap width could be tuned between semimetallic and semiconducting states by varying the neck width. ©The Royal Society of Chemistry.

摘要:
Controlling magnetic transport through a single molecule remains one of the most fundamental challenges of spin electronics. Here, we investigate the effects of the redox reaction on the magnetic transport properties of a single anthraquinone (AQ) molecule connected to zigzag graphene nanoribbon electrodes by using the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism with density functional theory. Two kinds of contacted types, isomeric AQ-14 and AQ-15, are considered in this work. The results show the excellent spin-filtering with 100% spin filtering efficiency can be found in AQ-14 molecular device. Redox reaction on the molecule doesn't affect its spin filtering behavior. After the contacted type changing, the spin-filtering behavior is only found in AQ-15 molecular device at the reduced state. When the molecule is oxidized, the α-spin current of the device is reduced dramatically leading to the absence of the spin-filtering behavior. More importantly, the on-off of the α-spin electronic conductance of AQ-15 induced by redox reaction can allow it be designed as a spin current switching.

摘要:
The First-principles calculation is used to investigate the transport properties of a carbon chain connected with N-and/or B-doped caped carbon nanotube acting as electrodes. The I-V curves of the carbon chain are affected by the N/B doping sites, and rectifying behavior can be obtained distinctly when the carbon chain is just connected onto two doping atom sites (N- chain-B), and a weak rectification occurs when N (B) doping at other sites. Interestingly, the spin-filtering effects exist in the junction when it is doped at other sites, undoped system, or N-terminal carbon chains. However, no this behavior is found in N-chain-B and B-chain-B systems. The analysis on the transmission spectra, PDOS, LDOS, spin density, and the electron transmission pathways give an insight into the observed results for the system. © 2016 Author(s).

摘要:
We performed first-principles simulation on the electronic structure of zigzag silicene nanoribbons (ZSiNRs), and found that semi-hydrogenation can break the extended π-bonding network of silicene, leaving the electrons in the unsaturated Si atoms localized and unpaired, and ferromagnetic semiconducting behavior can be obtained. While the fully hydrogenated ZSiNRs are found to be energetically degenerate and show wide band-gap semiconductor feature. Then, we designed and investigated the spin-dependent electron transport of a heterostructure, consisting of semi-hydrogenation ZSiNRs and ZSiNRs. The results show a perfect dual spin filtering effect at the parallel and antiparallel spin configuration with large bias range. The spin dependent electron transmission spectrum, band structure, transmission pathway, and the molecularly projected self-consistent Hamiltonian state are employed to investigate the physical origin of the spin-polarized effect. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

摘要:
Based on the non-equilibrium Green's function method combined with the density functional theory, the spin transport properties of an iron-phthalocyanine (FePc) molecule connected to two Au electrodes by carbon chains are investigated, and three kinds of connecting position between FePc molecule and carbon chains are considered. It is found that the spin filtering effect and the negative differential resistance (NDR) behavior in these systems can be achieved in the calculated bias region. However, the efficiency and the bias region of spin filtering are affected significantly by the connecting positions. The above results are explained by the spin-resolved transmission spectrum, electron transmitting path, molecular projected self consistent Hamiltonian state, and the local density of states (LDOS) analyses. Our calculations demonstrate a promising modification for developing molecule spintronic devices. © 2016 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.

摘要:
We investigate the electron transport properties in atomic carbon wires between two zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) electrodes by applying nonequilibrium Green's functions in combination with the density-functional theory. It shows that the ZGNR electrode twisting can modulate the conductance of the atomic carbon wire-graphene junctions remarkably. Typical currents of devices with odd carbon wires are much higher than currents of devices with even carbon wires to exhibit even-odd behavior. The negative differential resistance behaviors are only found in the devices with odd carbon wires. When the right ZGNR electrode is twisted, the curvatures of the current-voltage characteristics change remarkably upon twisted angles. The current will decrease by up to 5 orders of magnitude when the twisted angle reaches to 90°. That means the atomic carbon wire-graphene junctions can be made as a mechanical switching. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
The polycrystalline structures for graphene are practically unavoidable by the currently existing growth routes, thus the scattering issue of electrons by grain boundary (GBs) becomes a theoretical and an experimental relevant one. Here, magnetic transport properties of the polycrystalline graphene nanoribbons (PGNRs) with a zigzag-armchair-zigzag structure are investigated systematically. It shows that GBs can induce significant localized electron states and magnetic ordering in the region consisting of GBs and armchair segment, and the interdomain electronic transmission across the GBs is transparent or blocked completely depending on the spin direction (α or β) of electrons as well as the microscopic details and relative orientation of GBs, which causes a special spin polarization for the magnetic transport. Especially, the perfect spin-filtering, spin-rectifying, and giant magnetoresistance effects can be realized simultaneously in such heterojunctions. These novel features can be rationalized by the spin splitting of molecular levels as well as the delocalization degree and parity limitation of molecular orbital wave functions in the scattering region serving as an extended molecule. Also shown is that PGNR-based heterojunctions possess a large range of magnetic behaviors with variation of its geometrical size. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
Using the non-equilibrium Green's function method combined with density function theory, we investigate the spin transport for carbon chains connected to electrodes of different materials. When a carbon chain is linked to the C-H (C-H<inf>2</inf>) bonded edges of H<inf>2</inf>-ZGNR-H, the carbon chain displays a net spin polarization with a net magnetic moment of 1.367 μB (-0.935 μB) for the C-H (C-H<inf>2</inf>) bonded edge contacts, but the directions of the net magnetic moment are opposite, and the latter system shows a larger spin conductance. Then, we choose N-doped H<inf>2</inf>-ZGNR-H as the left electrode, and the right electrode is replaced with a single-capped carbon nanotube, armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR), or gold electrode. The conductance and the bias range for perfect spin-filtering of these systems shows obvious differences: the carbon nanotube (Au) system shows weaker conductance, and the AGNR system shows the largest bias range for perfect spin-filtering.

摘要:
Using first-principle methods, we investigate the magnetism properties of zigzag-edge graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) with a nanopore, and find that edges of such a nanopore show important effects although the electron transport is mainly along the outer edge of ZGNR. The robust bipolar spin semiconductor can be obtained when the edges of such a nanopore are varied, where both spin states have a gap but can relatively shift. We speculate that bipolar spin semiconductor behavior is related with two factors: broken inner edge states and width of electrode. A series of models are considered: 6-ZGNRs with only one edge occupied by one triangle protrusion (TP), are connected with different width ZGNR electrodes. With the increase the electrode width along the TP edge direction, the systems show the following behavior in turn: spin metallicity, spin gapless semiconductor, and bipolar spin semiconductor. Finally, we show that the half-metallicity is realizable when electric fields are applied across the ZGNR with a nanopore, and their magnetic properties can be controlled by the external electric field. These findings suggest a new possibility for developing nanometer-scale carbon spintronic devices. ©2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
The properties of two polyphenyls doped with nitrogen and boron atoms, which are connected by an alkane chain, are investigated by the non-equilibrium Green’s function method combined with the density functional theory. It has been found that the doped sites have significant effects on the current–voltage characteristics. For models with the N(B) near the alkane chain, the rectification ratio is smaller, but the rectifying performance of models with the N(B) far away from the alkane chain is tremendously enhanced and rectification ratios can reach 280, alongside negative differential resistance behavior. The mechanisms for these phenomena are explained by transmission spectra, the molecular projected self-consistent Hamiltonian eigenstates, electrostatic potential distribution, and projected density of states. © 2014, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.
