Valley filter in strain engineered graphene
We propose a simple, yet highly efficient and robust device for producing
valley polarized current in graphene. The device comprises of two distinct
components; a region of uniform uniaxial strain, adjacent to an out-of-plane
magnetic barrier configuration formed by patterned ferromagnetic gates. We show
that when the amount of strain, magnetic field strength, and Fermi level are
properly tuned, the output current can be made to consist of only a single
valley contribution. Perfect valley filtering is achievable within
experimentally accessible parameters.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures; minor corrections, updated Figs. 2 and 3, added

Pelatihan Pengembangan Materi Ajar dalam Bentuk Media Power Point pada Materi Struktur Luar Tumbuhan
The challenge of the 21st century is how teachers as much as possible integrate learning with information technology. Lecturers often find slides prepared by students when the presentation is not good, for example: full text and not contrast. The purpose of this study is to explain how the implementation, response, constraints, and difficulties during the development of materials in the form of a powerpoint slide on the material outside the plant structure. The research approach is based on qualitative research. Data obtained from questionnaires, interviews, and observations on PGMI students Semester 4 academic year 2017/2018. Data analysis using Miles and Haberman version. The results showed that the implementation of the training through three stages of pre-training, training and evaluation. Training includes 10 menus, namely: making titles, core competencies, basic competencies, indicators, concept maps, aperception, sub material outside structure in plants, insert windows media player, practice questions, and compile learning resources. All the trainees were pleased with the material development training through the presentation slides, 75% said they were useful, and 87.25% said Powerpoint training was something new. The material difficulties faced by students are 50% in the form of structure and content, 25% are Powerpoint templates, 12.5% difficulties create hyperlinks and insert windows video player. Technical obstacles faced in general are 62.5% in the form of time settings, 25% HR, and 12,% laptop supplies are limited
Time Quantified Monte Carlo Algorithm for Interacting Spin Array Micromagnetic Dynamics
In this paper, we reexamine the validity of using time quantified Monte Carlo
(TQMC) method [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 163 (2000); Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 067208
(2006)] in simulating the stochastic dynamics of interacting magnetic
nanoparticles. The Fokker-Planck coefficients corresponding to both TQMC and
Langevin dynamical equation (Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert, LLG) are derived and
compared in the presence of interparticle interactions. The time quantification
factor is obtained and justified. Numerical verification is shown by using TQMC
and Langevin methods in analyzing spin-wave dispersion in a linear array of
magnetic nanoparticles.Comment: Accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
Non-equilibrium spatial distribution of Rashba spin torque in ferromagnetic metal layer
We study the spatial distribution of spin torque induced by a strong Rashba
spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) in a ferromagnetic (FM) metal layer, using the
Keldysh non-equilibrium Green's function method. In the presence of the s-d
interaction between the non-equilibrium conduction electrons and the local
magnetic moments, the RSOC effect induces a torque on the moments, which we
term as the Rashba spin torque.
A correlation between the Rashba spin torque and the spatial spin current is
presented in this work, clearly mapping the spatial distribution of Rashba Spin
torque in a nano-sized ferromagnetic device. When local magnetism is turned on,
the out-of-plane (Sz) Spin Hall effect (SHE) is disrupted, but rather
unexpectedly an in-plane (Sy) SHE is detected. We also study the effect of
Rashba strength (\alpha_R) and splitting exchange (\Delta) on the
non-equilibrium Rashba spin torque averaged over the device. Rashba spin torque
allows an efficient transfer of spin momentum such that a typical switching
field of 20 mT can be attained with a low current density of less than 10^6

Who Receives More Family Related Support in the Workplace? A Meta-Analysis of Gender Differences in Family Related Support
The purpose of the current study was to meta-analytically estimate if gender differences exist in the provision of family related support in the workplace. Gender differences are of particular interest in the realm of family related support in the workplace because they lie at the intersection of prescribed gender roles for both men and women at home and work. Family related support plays an integral role in an employees’ willingness to utilize family friendly policies that organizations provide to meet the increasing needs of employees to balance work and family demands. Though it may seem like a simple research question, theoretical models provide conflicting predictions on the presence of gender differences and the empirical evidence is inconsistent. Hunter and Schmidt’s (2004) meta-analytical procedures were employed to test for the presence of gender differences in family related support and potential moderators. Results indicate that female employees receive significantly more family related support than male employees in the workplace. Additionally, significant moderators of the gender difference were GDP, unemployment rate, masculinity, and time orientation. Theoretical and practical implications regarding the role that gender roles play in support and work-family conflict are discussed
