Enhanced half-metallicity in the zigzag graphene nanoribbons by adsorption of the zigzag hydrogen fluoride molecular chains

Abstract
A comprehensive theoretical study of the half-metallicity in the zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) by adsorption of the zigzag hydrogen fluoride chains was presented. The ZGNR by adsorption of the hydrogen fluoride chains could be half-metallic when a critical length of the hydrogen fluoride chain is achieved on the ZGNR at low temperature. It was found that the strong dipole moments of the hydrogen fluoride chains act as the constant electric field. Our results suggest a huge possibility in spintronics device applications for achieving half-metallicity in the ZGNRs without the excessively high external electric fields.
