Quantum transport and spin current in a zigzag SiC nanoribbon device under a thermal
gradient are investigated theoretically within the framework of the Landauer–Büttiker …

The edge magnetism of zigzag SiC nanoribbons in its ground state is half-metallic, but is
competed by a non-half-metal state that is energetically extremely close. In this work, we …
