Abstract

In this work we study some applications for pseudo-spin filters. The filters are potential barriers with hyperboloid sub-band contributions that are locally applied over graphene nano-ribbons. These filters modulate the pseudo-spin and the quirality of the wave-function allowing the recovery of the conductance loss due to imperfections, bends, or constrictions (asymmetries) found in the system. The recovery of the conductance is fulfilled by a direct manipulation of the pseudo-spin polarization at both sides of the device by localizing the filters at the system’s entrance and exit points. This procedure allows the recovery of the wave-function symmetry at these points with the consequent recovery of the conductance, even when it is zero, regardless of the different internal regions that affect the transmission, i.e. the filters are used as patches for damaged regions. Our results can be extrapolated for spatially asymmetrical potentials generated by electrical (or magnetic) impurities.
