Magneto-transport in impurity-doped few-layer graphene spin valve
Using Keldysh nonequilibrium Green's function method we study the
spin-dependent transport through impurity-doped few layer graphene sandwiched
between two magnetic leads with an arbitrary mutual orientations of the
magnetizations. We find for parallel electrodes magnetizations that the
differential conductance possesses two resonant peaks as the applied bias
increases. These peaks are traced back to a buildup of a magnetic moment on the
impurity due to the electrodes spin polarization. For a large mutual angle of
the electrodes magnetization directions, the two resonant peaks approach each
others and merge into a single peak for antiparallel orientation of the
electrodes magnetizations. We point out that the tunneling magnetoresistance
(TMR) may change sign for relatively small changes in the values of the
polarization parameters. Furthermore, we inspect the behaviour of the
differential conductance and TMR upon varying the temperature.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures, accepted by Phys. Rev.
Systematic investigation of the rotational bands in nuclei with using a particle-number conserving method based on a cranked shell model
The rotational bands in nuclei with are investigated
systematically by using a cranked shell model (CSM) with the pairing
correlations treated by a particle-number conserving (PNC) method, in which the
blocking effects are taken into account exactly. By fitting the experimental
single-particle spectra in these nuclei, a new set of Nilsson parameters
( and ) and deformation parameters ( and
) are proposed. The experimental kinematic moments of inertia
for the rotational bands in even-even, odd- and odd-odd nuclei, and the
bandhead energies of the 1-quasiparticle bands in odd- nuclei, are
reproduced quite well by the PNC-CSM calculations. By analyzing the
-dependence of the occupation probability of each cranked Nilsson
orbital near the Fermi surface and the contributions of valence orbitals in
each major shell to the angular momentum alignment, the upbending mechanism in
this region is understood clearly.Comment: 21 pages, 24 figures, extended version of arXiv: 1101.3607 (Phys.

Energy Spectrum Theory of Incommensurate Systems
Due to the lack of the translational symmetry, calculating the energy
spectrum of an incommensurate system has always been a theoretical challenge.
Here, we propose a natural approach to generalize the energy band theory to the
incommensurate systems without reliance on the commensurate approximation, thus
providing a comprehensive energy spectrum theory of the incommensurate systems.
Except for a truncation dependent weighting factor, the formulae of this theory
are formally almost identical to that of the Bloch electrons, making it
particularly suitable for complex incommensurate structures. To illustrate the
application of this theory, we give three typical examples: one-dimensional
bichromatic and trichromatic incommensurate potential model, as well as a
moir\'{e} quasicrystal. Our theory establishes a fundamental framework for
understanding the incommensurate systems.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figure
Rotation and alignment of high- orbitals in transfermium nuclei
The structure of nuclei with is investigated systematically by the
Cranked Shell Model (CSM) with pairing correlations treated by a
Particle-Number Conserving (PNC) method. In the PNC method, the particle number
is conserved and the Pauli blocking effects are taken into account exactly. By
fitting the experimental single-particle spectra in these nuclei, a new set of
Nilsson parameters ( and ) is proposed. The experimental kinematic
moments of inertia and the band-head energies are reproduced quite well by the
PNC-CSM calculations. The band crossing, the effects of high- intruder
orbitals and deformation are discussed in detail.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of the International Nuclear Physics
