RESUMO
Tuning the band gap is of utmost importance for the practicality of two-dimensional materials in the semiconductor industry. In this study, we investigate the ballistic transport and the tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) properties within a modulated gap in a ferromagnetic/normal/ferromagnetic (F/N/F) phosphorene junction. The theoretical framework is established on a Dirac-like Hamiltonian, the transfer matrix method, and the Landauer-Büttiker formalism to characterize electron behavior and obtain transmittance, conductance and TMR. Our results reveal that a reduction in gap energy leads to an enhancement of conductance for both parallel and anti-parallel magnetization configurations. In contrast, a significant reduction and redshift in TMR have been observed. Notably, the application of an electrostatic field in a gapless phosphorene F/N/F junction induces a blueshift and a slight increase in TMR. Furthermore, we found that introducing an asymmetrically applied electrostatic field in this gapless junction results in a significant reduction and redshift in TMR. Additionally, intensifying the applied magnetic field leads to a substantial increase in TMR. These findings could be useful for designing and implementing practical applications that require precise control over the TMR properties of a phosphorene F/N/F junction with a modulated gap.
