The zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) has an antiferromagnetic property, that is, the relative spin angle theta between the two edges is 180 degrees . By using noncollinear first-principles calculations, we find that the magnetic phase of the ZGNR can be controlled by injecting either electrons or holes: as the carrier density increases, theta continuously decreases from 180 to 0 degrees , which indicates that the net magnetization is possible. Either FET doping or chemical doping is found to be possible.
锯齿形石墨烯纳米带(ZGNR)具有反铁磁特性,即两条边缘之间的相对自旋角θ为180度。通过使用非共线第一性原理计算,我们发现可以通过注入电子或空穴来控制ZGNR的磁相:随着载流子密度增加,θ从180度连续减小到0度,这表明净磁化是可能的。研究发现场效应晶体管(FET)掺杂或化学掺杂都是可行的。
