▎ 摘  要

Electronic, magnetic and transport properties of a triangle graphene quantum clot have been studied in the presence of Rashba type spin-orbit coupling. The non-interacting part is written in the tight-binding model, and we use the Kene-Mele-Hubbard (KMH) Hamiltonian to describe the electron-electron and the Rashba spin-orbit interaction. While the Hubbard tel split the spin up and down states, the Rashba tel mixed these states. The competition between these two effects produces an interesting situation in a nano-device. Our results indicate that the magnetization of zigzag edge and spin coherence are decreased due to the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in the triangle graphene quantum dot It is shown that the reduction of spin coherence is non-negligible even in the case of weak Rashba spin-orbit interaction.
