Spin-split bands of metallic hydrogenated ZnO ( 10 1 ¯ 0 ) surface: First-principles study

For spintronics applications, generation of significant spin transport is required, which is achieved by applying a semiconductor surface exhibiting metallic spin-split surface-state bands. We show that metallic spin-split surface-state bands are achieved on hydrogenated ZnO ( 10...
