Abstract

The generation of a fully valley-polarized current (FVPC) in bulk graphene is a fundamental goal in valleytronics. To this end, we investigate valley-dependent transport through a strained graphene modulated by a finite magnetic superlattice. It is found that this device allows a coexistence of insulating transmission gap of one valley and metallic resonant band of the other. Accordingly, a substantial bulk FVPC appears in a wide range of edge orientation and temperature, which can be effectively tuned by structural parameters. A valley-resolved Hall configuration is designed to measure the valley polarization degree of the filtered current.
