SOI and spin-dependent voltage drop
« on: April 20, 2011, 04:32 »
Dear colleagues,

I have two questions:

1. Is spin-orbit interation taken into consideration by atk when we conduct a two-probe transmission calculation;

and

2. Can we calculate spin-resolved voltage-drop with ATK 11.2?

Thanks,
baizq

The spin-orbit coupling is not implemented now. Other discussion related to this topic can be seen here:

The spin-resolved "EffectivePotential" can be printed out by calling EffectivePotential(configuration, spin), therefore the spin-resolved voltage drop can be obtained by means of the calculation of spin-resolved "EffectivePotential".
