Anisotropic quantum transport in monolayer graphene in the presence of Rashba spin–orbit coupling

We have studied spin-dependent electron tunneling through the Rashba barrier in a monolayer graphene lattices. The transfer matrix method, have been employed to obtain the spin dependent transport properties of the chiral particles. It is shown that graphene sheets in the presence of Rashba spin–orbit barrier will act as an electron spin-inverter.
