▎ 摘 要
Future development of spintronic devices urgently requires an advanced control method of spin current. Combining graphene with other various characteristic two-dimensional crystals in different ways can produce a new class of functional materials, which offers a unique platform for spintronics. A specific van der Waals heterostructure consisting of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) as the barrier layer in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) is proposed in this paper. This heterostructure device combines the strong spin filtering effect of graphene/ferromagnet interface and the resonant tunneling effect of graphene/h-BN/graphene van der Waals heterostructure. We demonstrate an effective approach to control spin current based on the bias tunability of the spin resonance tunneling transport. Theoretical research unambiguously reveals that spin resonance appears when the electronic spectra of spin electron in two graphene layers are aligned, which results in a large magnetoresistance and negative differential resistance in the device. The efficient bias controllability of spin current, combined with the excellent magnetoresistance behavior, can be the key building blocks in future spin-based magnetic detection and high-frequency logic devices.
