Quantum transport properties of hybrid BN–C nanotubes: Strong spin filtering effect robust against Stone–Wales defects
We study the spin-polarized electron transport properties of hybrid BN–C nanotubes (BN–CNTs) in their pristine form and with Stone–Wales defects, namely, Cx(BN)10−x, using combined first-principles density functional theory and quantum transport simulations. We show that the band structures of prist...
