Nanotechnology has emerged at the forefront of science research and technology
development. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are major building blocks of this new technology …

We review the emerging field of organic spintronics, where organic materials are applied as
a medium to transport and control spin-polarized signals. The contacts for injecting and …

Vertically-aligned carbon nanotubes possess many advantages for a wide range of
multifunctional applications. Along with the controlled growth of aligned/micropatterned …

1D heterojunction structures based on nanomaterials are of significance to both scientific
fundamentals in nanoscience [1] and potential applications in nanoscale systems, including …

The review concerns the fundamentals of spintronics (spin-transport electronics). The
material covers spin-spin interactions and spin relaxation in semiconductors as well as spin …

Abstract One-dimensional (1D) CdS@ ZnS core-shell nanocomposites were successfully
synthesized via a two-step solvothermal method. Preformed CdS nanowires with a diameter …

We present two-terminal magnetotransport measurements on single-wall carbon nanotube
devices, where one or two of the terminals are ferromagnetic. Both ferromagnetic …

We discuss the electronic waiting-time distribution of a quantum-dot spin valve, ie, a single-
level quantum dot coupled to two ferromagnetic electrodes with magnetizations that can …

We investigate transport through a single-level quantum dot coupled to noncollinearly
magnetized ferromagnets in the presence of localized spins in either the tunnel barrier or on …

This book gives a detailed and up-to-date overview of the linearized augmented cylindrical
wave (LACW) technique for nanotubes and nanowires. The author presents the …
