Abstract
We investigate the influences of exchange field and perpendicular electric field on the subgap transport in silicene-based ferromagnetic/superconducting (FS) and ferromagnetic/superconducting/ferromagnetic (FSF) junctions. Owing to the unique buckling structure of silicene, the Andreev reflection and subgap conductance can be effectively modulated by a perpendicular electric field. It is revealed that the subgap conductance in the FS junction can be distinctly enhanced by an exchange field. Remarkably, resorting to the tunable band gap of silicene, an exclusive crossed Andreev reflection (CAR) process in the FSF junction can be realized within a wide range of related parameters. Moreover, in the FSF junction the exclusive CAR and exclusive elastic cotunneling processes can be switched by reversing the magnetization direction in one of the ferromagnetic regions.
