Spin-polarized electrons in bilayer graphene ribbons

We show that a bilayer graphene ribbon deposited above a ferromagnetic insulator can behave as a spin-filtering device. The ferromagnetic material induces exchange splitting in the graphene ribbon, and due to the Fano antiresonances occurring in the transmission of the graphene ribbon as a function...
