Open AccessControllable Valley Polarization Using Silicene Double Line Defects Due to Rashba Spin-Orbit Coupling
We theoretically investigate the valley polarization in silicene with two parallel line defects due to Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC). It is found that as long as RSOC exceeds the intrinsic spin-orbit coupl...

Valley Hall Effect and Magnetic Moment in Magnetized Silicene
We investigate the physical properties of silicene with both staggered sublattice potential and magnetization by using Kubo formalism, the latter arises from the magnetic proximity effect by depositing Fe atom...
