▎ 摘  要

Ferromagnetic insulators deposited on graphene can induce ferromagnetic correlations in graphene. We estimate that induced exchange splittings Delta similar to 5 meV can be achieved by, e.g., using the magnetic insulator EuO. We study the effect of the induced spin splittings on the graphene transport properties. The exchange splittings in proximity-induced ferromagnetic graphene can be determined from the transmission resonances in the linear response conductance or, independently, by magnetoresistance measurements in a spin-valve device. The spin polarization of the current near the Dirac point increases with the length of the barrier, so that long systems are required to determine Delta experimentally.
