The obtained spin polarizations agreed with those expected from first-principles calculations considering the positron wave function and the electron density of states from the first surface layer to the vacuum region. The higher spin polarizations of graphene and h-BN on Co(0001) as compared to Ni(111) simply reflect the spin polarizations of these metals. The comparable spin polarizations of graphene and h-BN on the same metal are attributed to the creation of similar electronic states due to the strong influence of the metals: the Dirac cone of graphene and the band gap of h-BN disappear as a consequence of d-π hybridization.}, pages = {195405-1--195405-5}, title = {Spin polarization of graphene and $h$-BN on Co(0001) and Ni(111) observed by spin-polarized surface positronium spectroscopy}, volume = {97}, year = {2018} }
