AbstractThe spin current transmission properties of narrow zigzag graphene nanoribbons (zGNRs) have been the focus of much computational research, investigating the potential application of zGNRs in spintronic devices. Doping, fuctionalization, edge modification, and external electric fields have been studied as methods for spin current control, and the performance of zGNRs initialized in both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin states has been modeled. Recent work has shown that precise fabrication of narrow zGNRs is possible, and has addressed long debated questions on their magnetic order and stability. This work has revived interest in the application of antiferromagnetic zGNR configurations in spintronics. A general ab initio analysis of narrow antiferromagnetic zGNR performance under a combination of bias voltage and transverse electric field loading shows that their current transmission characteristics differ sharply from those of their ferromagnetic counterparts. At relatively modest field strengths, both majority and minority spin currents react strongly to the applied field. Analysis of band gaps and current transmission pathways explains the presence of negative differential resistance effects and the development of spatially periodic electron transport structures in these nanoribbons.

Transverse Electric Fields

In a previous paper31 discrepancies between theory and experiment were found on investigating the positive column in a curved magnetic field. The approximation derived in 31 for the torus drift in a weakly ionized magnetoplasma is therefore checked here (Part I) with a refined theory which also yields the transverse electric field strength. Experimentally, both the transverse electric fields and the density profiles in the DC discharge were determined in addition to the longitudinal electric field strength.The discrepancies occurring in 31 are ascribed to the fact that the plasma concentrates at the cathode end of the magnetic field coils, this effect having a considerable influence on the form of the transverse density profile and on the stability behaviour. Part II later will show how the influence of this concentration can be eliminated and what effect in the current-carrying toroidal plasma causes a marked reduction of the charge carrier losses.
