Graphene-based (and similar) nanostructures for spintronics and spin caloritronics. Theoretical studies
 		
		
			Objectives
			The objectives of the Project are as follows:
			
			  - Studies of the effect of external contacts on edge magnetic moments.
 
			  - Comparative studies on charge and spin transport through graphene and selected graphene-like nanostructures.
 
			  - Studies on magneto-thermoelectric effects in graphene and similar 2-dimensional nanostructures.
 
			  - Studies on effects due to electron correlations and structural defects in the context of                 low-dimensional nanosystems.
