Pinning and switching of magnetic moments in bilayer graphene

Year: 2009

Type: article

Abstract: We examine the magnetic properties of the localized states induced by lattice vacancies in bilayer graphene with an unrestricted Hartree–Fock calculation. We show that, with realistic values of the parameters and for experimentally accessible gate voltages, we can have magnetic switching between an unpolarized and a fully polarized system.
