A Mathematical Aspect of A Tunnel-Junction for Spintronic Qubit

We consider the Dirac particle living in the 1-dimensional configuration space with a junction for a spintronic qubit. We give concrete formulae explicitly showing the one-to-one correspondence between every self-adjoint extension of the minimal Dirac operator and the boundary condition of the wave functions of the Dirac particle. We then show that the boundary conditions are classified into two types: one of them is characterized by two parameters and the other is by three parameters. Then, we show that Benvegnu and Dabrowski's four-parameter family can actually be characterized by three parameters, concerned with the reflection, penetration, and phase factor.
