Journal ArticleDOI

Spintronics: Fundamentals and applications

TL;DR: Spintronics, or spin electronics, involves the study of active control and manipulation of spin degrees of freedom in solid-state systems as discussed by the authors, where the primary focus is on the basic physical principles underlying the generation of carrier spin polarization, spin dynamics, and spin-polarized transport.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electronic transport in two-dimensional graphene

TL;DR: In this paper, a broad review of fundamental electronic properties of two-dimensional graphene with the emphasis on density and temperature dependent carrier transport in doped or gated graphene structures is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Majorana Fermions and a Topological Phase Transition in Semiconductor-Superconductor Heterostructures

TL;DR: The measurement of the supercurrent through the junction allows one to discern topologically distinct phases and observe a topological phase transition by simply changing the in-plane magnetic field or the gate voltage, which will be a direct demonstration of the existence of Majorana particles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generic new platform for topological quantum computation using semiconductor heterostructures.

TL;DR: The heterostructure proposed is a semiconducting thin film sandwiched between an s-wave superconductor and a magnetic insulator which can be used as the platform for topological quantum computation by virtue of the existence of non-Abelian Majorana fermions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dielectric function, screening, and plasmons in 2D graphene

TL;DR: In this article, the wave vector dependent plasmon dispersion and the static screening function of the Coulomb interaction in 2D graphene layer were found in the self-consistent field approximation.
