Anomalous zero bias conductance peak in a ferromagnetic graphene junction with d-wave anisotropic superconducting pair symmetry

We theoretically present an anomalous zero bias conductance peak (ZBCP) in graphene junctions with proximity-induced ferromagnetism and d-wave anisotropic superconducting pair symmetry (ASPS) herein. It is revealed that in the thin insulator limit, the ZBCP can be periodically recovered by adjusting the sandwiched insulating barrier strength χ regardless of exchange field h and the phase of the periodical behaviours for h larger than its Fermi energy EF (h > EF) is exactly opposite to that for h < EF. Most interestingly, in the context of h > EF, the periodic oscillation of the nonzero bias conductance located in the ZBCP versus χ, is accompanied by an explicit splitting peak. Moreover, under the situation of the insulator with finite width, the conductance exhibits a stronger damping oscillation with bias voltage eV for any h, which is also accompanied by a splitting ZBCP at h > EF. These singular features originate from ferromagnetic-modulated midgap states characteristic by the relativistic nodal fermions, which confirms the spin polarization and ASPS of the graphene, and thus will be of great interest in the designing and fabrication of graphene superconducting spintronic devices.
