  • Dirac half-semimetallicity and antiferromagnetism in graphene nanoribbon/hexagonal boron nitride heterojunctions

    Spintronics is a branch of electronics that aims to harness the spin of electrons for storing and processing information. Spintronic devices rely on materials in which electrons with opposite spin orientations behave differently. In this work, we show that graphene nanoribbons embedded in hexagonal boron nitride are a promising platform for future spintronic applications thanks to their combination of half-metallic behaviour and electrically tunable magnetism.
