摘要
We study various mechanisms of electron transmission across the corrugations in the graphene sheet. The spin dependence of the electron transmission probability in the rippled graphene is found. The electron mean free path and transmission probabilities are analysed for different distributions of ripples in the graphene sheet as well. We demonstrate that the periodically repeated rippled graphene structure (the superlattice) leads to the suppression of the transmission of the ballistic electrons with one spin orientation in contrast to the other, depending on the direction of the incoming electron flow.
