Electrical controllable spin valves in a zigzag silicene nanoribbon ferromagnetic junction Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 11547127), the China Postdoctoral Science Foundation (Grant No. 2017M611852), and the Natural Science Foundation for Colleges and Universities in Jiangsu Province, China (Grant No. 13KJB140005). |
(color online) Energy–momentum relations of the left (ferromagnetic), C (nonmagnetic), and right (ferromagnetic) ZSRs for (a) λso = 0 eV, θ = 0 and (b) λso = 5 meV, θ = π. The “+ (−)” represents the even (odd) pseudo-parity (symmetry) of the quasi-particle, and it could be different for the conduction bands and the valence bands. The arrows show the electron transport owing to the band selection rule. The areas between two solid (dashed) lines depict the forbidden transport regions of the spin-up (-down) electrons. |
