Herein, the spin-dependent transport properties of a zigzag graphene nanoribbon (zGNR) with edges decorated with a fluoranthene group are studied. Atomically perfect zigzag edge, including phenyl-edge functionalization, was synthesized by Ruffieux et al. in a bottom-up chemical technique. By performing nearest-neighbor tight-binding model in combination with Landauer formalism and Green's function approach, as well as considering Coulomb electronic interaction computed both with density functional calculations and mean-field approximation of the Hubbard model, the magnetic and spin-resolved transmissions are studied. Both the model Hamiltonian and density functional theory (DFT) descriptions yield very similar results. Importantly, by generating a special supercell, three different antiferromagnetic alignments for phenyl-edge zGNR have been calculated, which was not developed in previous studies. The results show that by adding pentagon rings on both sides of the zGNR, the conductance loses its step-like behavior. Our structure of interest is a semiconductor with a transport gap of 0.56 eV. This kind of defective structure will enable the spin-feature characteristic, such as spin filtering, and add the spin degree of freedom to graphene-based logic devices.
