By means of the slave-boson mean-field approximation, we calculate the density of states in the Kondo regime for two different configurations of the leads. It is found that the transport shows some remarkable properties depending on the spin-flip strength. These effects may be useful in exploiting the role of electronic correlation in spintronics.展开更多

We analyse the density of states of this system, and our results reveal that the density of states show some noticeable characteristics depending on the relative angle θ of magnetic moment M, and the spin-polarised strength P in ferromagnetic leads, and also the magnetic flux Φ and the number of lattice sites NR in the mesoscopic ring. These effects might have some potential applications in spintronics.展开更多

There are both Fano effect and Kondo effect in the system, and due to their mutual interaction, the density of states, the current, and the differential conductance of the system depend sensitively on the spin-polarized strength. Thus the obtained results show that this system is provided with excellent spin filtering property, which indicates that this system may be a candidate for spin valve transistors in the spintronics.展开更多
