Spin-filter state of Au-Co nanowires

Our theoretical study reveals the dependence of quantum conductance of Au-Co nanowires on their atomic structure. The results show the emergence of spin-filter state in one-dimensional Au-Co bimetallic nanowires. We found the existence of two transmission regime in Au-Co nanowires with low and high...
