Spin and charge distributions in Graphene/Nickel (111) substrate under Rashba spin-orbital coupling

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

To understand the coupling factor between Rashba spin-orbital interaction and ferromagnetic proximity effect, we design a Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate the spin and charge distributions for the room-temperature Rashba material, Graphene/Nickel(111) substrate, at finite temperature. We observe that the rate of exchange fluctuation is a key player to produce giant Rashba spin-orbit splitting in graphene. More importantly, we monitor the Rashba spin-splitting phenomenon where the spin-polarized electrons may be escaped from two opposite edges upon heating. However, the escaped electrons show Gaussian-like distribution in interior area that is important for spintronic engineers to optimize the efficiency of spin-state detection. In addition, we investigate if our Monte Carlo model can explain why room-temperature Rashba effect is observed in Graphene/Nickel(111) substrate experimentally. All results are presented in physical units.
