摘要:
Based on the Keldysh non-equilibrium Green function method, the spin-polarized transport properties in a coupled-double-quantum-dot (CDQD) system with ferromagnetic electrodes (FM-CDQD-FM) are investigated. It is clearly seen that, in contrast to the steplike or basin-like behaviors of the spin (electrical) current in the FM-QD-FM system (Mu et al 2006 Phys. Rev. B 73 054414), the resonant tunneling determines the main features of the spin (electrical) current in the FM-CDQD-FM system. It must originate from the coupling effect between two dots, which destroys the Coulomb blockade (CB) effect and makes electron spin transport mainly depend on the cotunneling. Furthermore, it is also found that spin-polarized transport in the system is evidently modulated by the coupling strength between two dots, which results from the non-equilibrium spin accumulation and the spin precession for the presence of ferromagnetic electrodes.
