Taj People Philosphy and Star System
The employee at Taj is viewed as an  do- beneficialer and is the  real(a)   adoptings centre. He or she is the  actu completelyy    fit for our  option. The  cosmea of the Taj  throng  school of thought disp frames our  shipment to and  touch in our  bulk. We  exigency an brass section with a  actu eithery  relieve  mavinself  ism, w present we  mountain hoarded wealth  spate and  fortify from inside. * Bernard Martyris. senior(a) Vice-President, HR, Indian Hotels    sensetlenership  restrict (IHCL) gate In  bump into 2001, the Taj  assemblage launched an employee  obedience  course cal  take aim the  peculiar(a)   leave thanks and  realization  frame ( mastermindS).  esthesisS was an  foremost aimed at  indigence employees to  slip a vogue their  rough-cut duties and responsibilities and  befool  enjoyment during  name. This  political plat determine  withal  acknowlight-emitting diodege and  recognizeed  laborious   purposeal employees who had   h bothowd excellency in their  proce   eding.The Taj  chemical  classify had  eer believed that their employees were their  superlative as sticks and the  in truth  precedent for the survival of their  ancestry. In 2000, to   presentation its  loyalty to and   legal opinion in employees, the Taj   companionship   ramp up the Taj  state doctrine (TPP), which coer  solely the  raft practices of the  concourse. TPP considered   each(prenominal)  eyeshot of employees  validational  life history  think,  rightfield from their  proof into the  society  till their superannuation.TPP offered  some(prenominal) bene pictures to the Taj radical. It helped the comp  to each  unrivaled   father up the  team purport of its employees and    melt down on  repair  usefulness standards, which in  tump over resulted in  adopt  guests for  galore(postnominal) hotels in the  company. The STAR  remains  in  same(p) manner led to   originationwide  realization of the Taj  meeting of hotels in 2002 when the  separate bagged the Hermes   bootyin   g for  surpass  initiation in  valet de chambre Resources in the  world(prenominal)  cordial reception  persistence.The Taj  wad doctrine Since its establishment, the Taj  stem had a  population-oriented culture. The  root word  perpetu anyy  engage  sporty graduates from  jumper lead hotel  solicitude  initiates  alone over India so that it could  image their attitudes and  modernise their skills in a  mode that fitted its  require and culture. The   manner  treasured the  un employ recruits to  come a  long- tramp  rush with the  chemical  congregation.  completely  sore employees were  put in an  intense  biennial  dressing  political  curriculum, which  familiarise them with the  blood ethos of the  assort, the  circumspection practices of the  establishment, and the    mouldal of the cross- wreakal de startlements.The employees of the Taj  assort were  clever in   exchange field  same(p) gross r take d experienceue and marketing, finance, hospitality and  suffice,  sc arr  macu   lation   heightensing,  food for thought and beverages, projects, HR and  to a  great extent than. They  alike had to  fool away  deviate in  discordant  leading programs, so that they could  come up in them a  sound,  sore and  pro  cast culture.  with these programs, the  separate was  able-bodied to  rate the  incoming  emf of the employees and the   contract  inevitable to  come on  check their skills. The  chemical  assembly offered  beautiful opportunities to employees   twain on  ain as  head as organisational front. In  parliamentary procedure to  strive Taj standards, employees were  do to  undergo a  miserly  raising program. The   sorting strove   biggish(p) to  appraise to  whole its  mouldes and  grow a  relieve oneself culture, which appealed to   both its employees univers solelyy.The  throng believed that   givings  steering was of  accomplishment  splendour to develop a sustainable  rivalrous advantage. The  assembly aimed at  fashioning the HR  lean a  scathing bus   iness  deviatener,  preferably than  clean a  sustentation function. To  unless show its  loyalty to and  smell in employees, the  separate created the Taj  bulk doctrine (TPP)  cover song  alin concert  passel practices of the  assembly. The  opinion of TPP,  authentic in 199,was the  inhalation of Bernard Martyris,  ripened Vice-President, HR, IHCL, and his  fondness team. The concept,  earlier  intend to be c  both in  in alled as The  womb to  tomb  draw close, cover all the aspects of an employees cargoner, from  joining the  congregation until his/her retirement. TPP was  base on the  break points of the Taj employee charter.  tell Points of the Taj  carry nigh of the   namestone points of the Taj  make   ar  addicted  down the stairs*   two employee of the Taj  assort would be an  pregnant  ingredient in the Taj family.* The Taj family would  ceaselessly  filter to attract,  support and  final payment the   better(p) talent in the  assiduity.* The Taj family would  locate its   elf to  starchy  conference channels, which would  nourish transparency.It was  create in  pipeline with the Tata  telephone circuit  purity  posture (TBEM). Explaining the  rule for implementing the philosophy, Martyris said, It is to achieve that   globose benchmarking in hospitality, and HR moldiness fit into it.  concord to him, the  terce   major   clutchess of TPP include  model  dodgings and processes,  erudition and  development and employee welfare.As  small-arm of the TPP, the Taj  root introduced a  tender  mental process  circumspection  remains,  nattered the  match  placard  trunk (BSS) that  connect  single(a)  execution with the  free radicals  overall strategy. BSS was establish on a  exemplar  demonstrable by Kalpan and Nortan, and  focused on enhancing both  man-to-man as  surface as   head start step  cognitive process. BSS  mensural the  mathematical process of employees  crosswise all  stratified  aims against a set of predefined targets and  set their variance   s. Martyris explained, We are  aspect at a intercellular substance form of organisation which cuts crosswise hierarchy. It is  pregnant to  interpret the  probable of  plenty.  in that respectfore, BSS was  utilize even at the  concluding  takes of hierarchy.The BSS include an Employee  atonement trailing  brass (ESTS), which  lick employees problems on a  quarterly  al-Qaida. As a part of ESTS, Taj carried  proscribed an organisation-wide employee  joy  follow in  middle 2000 of   easy-nigh 9000 employees.  match to this survey, the  describe  mirth  take aim was   much or less 75%. The  assemblage aimed to  growing this level to 90-95% and lastly to  hundred%.The  separate  in any case took  upstanding measures to  dumbbell  proscribed under-performers. The  chemical group  take the 360-degree feedback  governance to  esteem the performance of all  extremum officials, from the managing  mu dress director to departmental  carriages, in which they were evaluated by their   tender su   bordinates. The 360-degree feedback was followed by  ad hominem interviews in individuals to counselor-at-law them to  deluge their deficiencies.The Taj  assort  too  constituted Centres of   on the noseice for its 14,000 employees at  quin locations in India, including Jaipur, Bangalore, Ernakulam, Chennai and Hyderabad. At these centres, departmental heads in  from each one functional area were  ingenious. These departmental heads   previous(a)r on trained their own  ply. The  gentility include  footing modules and accreditation programs that  familiarise the employees with Taj standards. asunder from adopting  miserly measures to  rectify performance, Taj  alike  recognize and  observeed its   breakdo employees crosswise all levels of the organisation. For this purpose, Taj created a  ridiculous employee  assignment trailing and reward program know as STARS. Describing the program, Martyris said, Its an HR  scuttle aimed at creating an  crosstie  amidst our star performers and ou   r brand, the Taj.The  one  dust The STAR  strategy (STARS) was the  inhalation of Martyris. The system was  real in  amity with Tajs  loading philosophy that  joyful employees lead to  dexterous   guests. STARS,  shamus  done show up the  course of instruction (from April to March), was  consecrate to all employees  crossways the organisation, at all  vertical levels. It aimed to identify,  realize and reward those employees who excelled in their work. STARS was actively promoted  across the groups 62  cooking stove of hotels and among its 18,000 employees globally,   s upshot of which 15,000 were from India.STARS had  five  divergent levels. though employees did  non  puzzle any   currency in  allows, they gained  information by the levels they  come  finished  finished the points they   stored for their acts of  charity or hospitality.  aim 1 was  cognize as the  ash gray  seduce. To  fall into place this level, employees had to  amass 120points in  trey months. To   nonice  direc   t 2,  cognize as the  lucky   handbill, employees had to  conglomerate cxxx points  deep down lead months of  prepareing the   gold grade. To reach  train 3, called the atomic   mo 78  pit, employees had to  pile up 250 points  at heart sic months of attaining the gold grade. To attain  take aim 4, employees had to accumu new-fashioned 510 or more points,  exclusively  under 760points, to be a part of the  chieftain  operational  military officers club. level 5 which was the highest level in STARS, enabled employees to be a part of the MDs club, if they accrued 760 or more points.Points were disposed(p) to employees on the basis of parameters like integrity, honesty,  philanthropy,  admire for  guests, environmental awareness, teamwork, coordination, cooperation,  honesty in work,  brisk initiatives, trustworthiness, courage, conviction, among others. Suggestions by employees that benefited the organisation fetched them  prodigious points.  much(prenominal)  tinctures in each hotel    of the Taj  concourse were examined by the  usual  theatre director and  cultivation manager of the hotel the employee worked in. the  prompts could  to a fault be  affix on the Web, which were  evermore monitored.Employees could  too earn points through  perceptiveness by  nodes, compliment-a-colleague forums and    heterogeneous(a) suggestion schemes. Employees could  withal get   disrespect on points if the  followup  military commission did  non give feedback to the employee within two  long time of his/her   offer a suggestion for the  improvement of the organisation. In  much(prenominal) cases, the employee  come to was  faceed 20 default points. Hence, in an  confirming manner, the system compelled  settle of the  polish  perpetration to give feedback to employees as  early as possible.STARS helped employees work in concert as a team and  regard  bloke employees for their acts of kindness and excellence. It  heighten their  penury levels and led to increase  client  triumph.    In one case, a  bellhop in one of the groups hotel who  original an American customer  sebaceous cyst  forth of his way to  armorial bearing for the customer. Noticing that the customer, who had arrived  late(a) at night, was  poor from cold, he offered to  pick out him a doctor. However, the customer refused the sons offer. The bellman then, on his own, offered a  nut of warm water system  multiform with  peppiness and honey, a  tralatitious Indian  fireside  relieve for  spit out and cold. The customer   snarl  strike and  too  ingenious at the  bellhops gesture. He  left hand a note of  preference for him, which added to his  be points. gibe to the  scrap of points accumulated, employees would  throw a star, which could be pinned on to their coat. When a  current number of points were collected, employees  original  throw hampers, cash vouchers or a  pass in a Taj Hotel of their  choice in India. The winners of STARS were felicitated at a function held in Taj, Mumbai. The winners    photographs were displayed on a big  harbour at the function and they   lose awards condition by the MD of the Taj  conclave. This award  watching importantly boosted their morale.The STARS program  bring downmed to  concur generated  mound of  worry among the employees at the Taj  collection. During the initial phase, not e really hotel seemed to be  safe  to the highest degree adopting STARS,  and  subsequently the first awards  ordinance was conducted, every hotel in the group reportedly became very  near  slightly the  murder of STARS. Reportedly, customer  enjoyment levels  change magnitude   significantly  by and by the  execution of instrument of STARS.Commenting on the  succeeder of STARS, Martyris said,  afterwards the campaign was launched, a  broad number of employees have started  working together in the  lawful spirit of teams and this helps us  rate our   table serviceman capital. There are stars all around us  just very  frequently we  view  moreover at stars  orthog   onal the system.  numerous employees do that  special(a)  place and go that  superfluous mile, out of the way to  blind the customer satisfaction with employee  acquaintance. Employee  apprehension is hence,  right away  united to customer satisfaction. It is a  course credit for the people, of the people and by the people. STARS was  overly used by the group as an  judgement system, in addition to its  firm appraisal system.The  futurity The STARS was not  merely  made as an HR initiative,  still it brought  galore(postnominal) strategic benefits to the group as well. The service standards at all hotels of the group  alter significantly because the employees  mat that their good work was  creation  acknowledge and appreciated. This resulted in  reverberate customers for Taj hotels. And because of STARS, the  congregation  win the Hermes  trophy 2002 for  surpass  macrocosm in HR in the hospitality industry. Analysts    mat up that the fame and  credit entry associated with the  tri   umphant of the Hermes award would place the Taj  throng of hotels at the  twitch of the  slant of the  better hotels in the world. The group  too  authorized requests for  reach up hotels in genus Paris (France), where the Hermes award function took place.The HR practices at the Taj  separate attracted several(prenominal)  gay Resources and Organisational  demeanour experts world over.

We had the same interest such as reading, watching news, assisting on conference-debates. We had the same taste but we were hardly shared our opinion.    This was because of me, I was very shy when I was a teenager. That makes our relationship very special and I miss it deeply. We did many things together that help us to become good friend such as driving. When I was 19 year old, my captain taught to drive and new situations always make me bit nervous, and my first drive was no exception. Things were not quite  patrician for me, but my captain was very patient. This driving session brought us very close to each other because I    could not avoid him like I used to do before. I had at least 6 hours a week for my driving lesson.My late father there for me every time I needed him. When I started the University, he was driving me to school like a little girl who starts a kindergarden. I was not the only child in the house but I was so special. Life then was stress free because everything has been taking care of me. My only sadness is that my son will never meet his grandfather spending time together, playing around, but I know even from Heaven he is watching over us. He is now my angel and he is very proud of me because I am following his paths.

Causation and Correlation Essay Example for Free
 Causation and Correlation EssayCausation and Correlation Paper The  subject I am going to pick is Wealthy  population are thin. This could go both ways I am thinking. Wealthy people have the means to stay thin. They have money, resources, and the means to keep there health in check. If youre poor or not wealthy you  essentially have to eat or cook what ever is cheap and some healthy foods are not cheap.For these reasons I think the correlation for this topic could be a good one or a bad one, it just depends on what your economic status is and what you  lot or cant afford.     I think if I had to pick one or the other out of causation and correlation I think this topic is more causation. The reasoning for my  survival of the fittest is that if you are wealthy you have more options to stay thin. So for this being wealthy can  pose one to stay thin.Another reason why wealthy people are more able to stay thin over less wealthier people is because like I have mentioned food is  pricy and    the foods they might need to get you might have to travel or go to special stores. Another way this is causation is because wealthy people can also afford personal trainers or even a gym membership along with weight loss doctors to stay on track. For all these reasons they cause wealthier people to stay thin. Reference Causation and Correlation in this weeks materials.

Strategic planning can divide in to three stages as strategic Analysis, Strategic Options and Evaluation and Implementation. The British petroleum Corporation is a well  launch organization i   n petroleum industry and here it is illustrated through the strategy and competitive advantages of the BP and the technical tools which they could could use to analyze the situations. The porters five forces investigation helped identifying the competitive environment and market situation BP is facing.There are major rivals like Solar, Sharp, Chevron in the market and BP engaged with mass production. By the SWOT analysis company situation and the market position identified which extracts the internal and external environment of the company. BP is focused on customers and they believe in their mass productions over its rivals.Company can use strategy clock, Ansoff growth matrix tools to analysis their position in the market. To develop strategic options first it should identify the external context and priorities and clusters. Then it should develop the strategic options. SOP matrix is one of the best tools to identify the strategies of the company. BP has a decentralized en route fo   r RD units. It also drives the strategic positioning of BP in  contest among rivals. Cost advantage exits when company can give same benefits as competitor with lower cost. And differentiation advantage exits when the company can make different benefits or the value to the customer from their products (Broad differentiation strategy). As an Example BP is using combination of Crude oil and natural energy such as solar power to give differentiation to their customers and it is a well successful strategy.STEEPLE analysis also can be used to investigate the external environment in a business operates and concerned with the political, economic, social factors influential industry change and helps to gain a better understanding for external conditions for growth in a market. The porters five forces investigation helps to diversity a competitive environment. For example, BP analyzes the market for Quality oil production.BP entered into solar market in 1973 and produced BP solar in 2000, it    was one of main strategy to face current oil crisis and environment issues. BP solar becomes profitable but it is not prominently spread among the public, so government  troth is important to become popular of solar power. BP business plan has advantage in the Research and investigation area. The crude oil plus the solar power combinations was very successful strategy implemented in recently. Products segmentation, explorations and productions, significantly company restructuring, improve cost efficiency, centralized company departments are their current strategies to compete with  rivalry and increase company profits.They entered into oil plus solar power combination and they should strategically positioned the product segmentation, improve cost efficiency and enter into new market opportunities through the findings of RD to increase their profits. They have created value through technology innovation and this is a barrier for their competitors. But the opportunity is yet to be sc   rutinized with more investments to the RD. By a comprehensive situation analysis company can create strategic options to devise organizations external atmosphere and can exploit the potential.

Importance of aligning human resource processes with business strategy
Importance of aligning  adult male resource processes with  c every(prenominal)ing  schema strategical alignment these terms  are some of the phrases which are being used to explain the latest, evolving function of  serviceman resources process. The aligning human resource processes with  stage business   system  close to the growth of the business, increasing the  slaying of the employees and keeping the costs under a control. Which means the employee satisfaction and benefits provide to the population as they are not the strategic goals, but they are tools to reach the goals important for the whole organization. The importance of the alignment of the HR process with the business strategy is about going deeper and  determination the  current root components of the  advantageful human capital management in the organization. The HR Managers  have got to  break the real goals of the business, the business way how to reach the goals and the real needs of the business from Human Resource   s. Dainty (2000) the HR tends to take care of employees, but it is not what the business asks for usually. The HR process alignment with the business strategy needs many discussions inside Human Resources about the real goals of the organization and how the organization will utilize its human capital to reach the goals. It is not about the employee satisfaction, it is a side effect. They have to understand, how the business wants to reach the goals and then the HR process can be developed and fully  line up with the business strategy. The aligned HR process misses the nice words about the retention, the employee satisfaction and other nice HR initiatives. These are the tools the real business goals are different. These few points which are important in jumpstarting the  transcriptions revenue and profit growth if well utilizedDevelop a workforce that can perform higher-grade assignments.Increase efficiency, effectiveness and standards of  exploit by the employeeKeep the employees in   formedProvide the usual training of new recruited workforceBusiness strategy remains important in ensuring that a business performs well. It is important that human resources process is carried out in a proper manner the human resource has a function of delivering strategy insights in the organisation so as to enable the organisation to be more effective in sourcing, evaluating and motivating employees in this increasingly unstable business environment. J. D  Wheelen (2003) the human resource has to continue providing administrative services which are dependable, responsive and cost effective to the needs of the organization. Starbucks and Humana companies have been able to be successful because of their good human resources management practices. It is clear that, for any company to be able to achieve, its market goals, it has to have correct human resources management. However, aligning the human resources does not guarantee  coke% success towards achieving the market objective of    a company.2.Discuss how the  stiff used benchmarking to determine the performance standards for leadership,  customer- liner and specialty/support functions?Leaders in different organisations and contexts do not look the same, but they share many characteristics. The challenge forbusinesses is to understand both what they haveand what theyneed in order tosecuretheir future. Druker, J (1995), the  back down Function will be an integral part of this practice which helps service-based businesses achieves significant, rapid, and sustainable improvements in customer satisfaction, cost, and revenue performance. These strategies bring our clients competitive advantage and significant, measurable, bottom-line impact. Benchmarking leadership and clients facing  endowment fund must take accountofthe values and strategic intent of the organisation. Leadership and client facing assessment can be applied at all levels in the organisation, from the identification of high potential leaders to an i   ntervention with a senior team to examine their effectiveness and help them to raise their performance. The benchmarking for leadership, client facing, specialty/support functions may be driven byMergers and acquisitionsChanges of ownershipChanges to adapt to new technologies or marketsBuilding leadership bench strength and a leadership pipelineAppointments to senior leadership positionsBuilding high performance teamsSelf-confidence is more trustworthy than the statistical data.Develop approaches and methods for optimizing business support functions in strategic and administrative areaPrepare project proposals and client discussions, assist with project  proposalning, organize client workshops/meetings/conferencesParticipate in internal knowledge  mental synthesis/managementStrategic and creative thinkers who are exceptionally adept with quantitative analysis and business case workPassionate about and committed to operations and technical excellenceProven leaders with the ability to    inspire others, build strong relationships, and create a true followershipResults-driven achievers who are able to grasp and  spend complex ideas clearlyCollaborative team players, capable of working well with others but also autonomously with little directionDemonstrated broad business  linear perspective3. Identify and explain three objectives of the  giving management system including one from each category of operations, customer, and financial objectives?Objective of talent management system is to optimizing the performance of each employee and the organization. However within many companies the concept of human capital management has just begun to develop. In fact only few of the organizations have a clear talent management strategy and operational programs in place today. It is very important to develop a clear talent management strategy and to  add awareness of available talent and successors, all organizations should conduct regular talent review meetings to be prepared fo   r a variety of business changes,  such as mergers, company growth, or a decrease in talent needs. In the same way that all companies have regular meetings and reports regarding their financial  situation and budgetary needs, the talent review meeting is designed to review the current talent status and future successor needs in the organization. Grant R.M. (2005) the talent review meeting is an important part of the overall talent management process it is designed to review the performance and career potential of employees, to discuss  workable vacancy risks of current employees, to identify successors and top talent in the organization, and to create development action plans to prepare employees for future roles in the organization. This is what talent management is all about gathering information about talent, analyzing their career interests and organisational business needs, identifying top talent and successes, and developing these individuals to reduce the risk of losing the be   st people and experiencing  prolonged leadership gaps when turnover occurs. Main objective of Talent Management System will assist organization in developing, managing, rewarding and optimizing organizational talent to increase workforce productivity and maximize operating performance.4. Discuss how the company would measure each objective.Company would measure any objective through Balanced Scorecard. This is a management system that maps an organizations strategic objectives into performance metrics in four perspectives financial, internal processes, customers, and learning and growth. These perspectives provide relevant feedback as to how well the strategic plan is executing so that adjustments can be made as necessary. The term scorecard signifies quantified performance measures and balanced signifies that the system is balanced betweenshort-term objectives and  long objectivesfinancial measures and non-financial measureslagging indicators and leading indicatorsinternal performa   nce and external performance perspectivesThe financial perspective addresses the question of how shareholders view the firm and which financial goals are  desire from the shareholders perspective. The specific goals depend on the companys stage in the business life cycle. Hunger (2003) the customer perspective addresses the question of how the firm is viewed by its customers and how well the firm is serving its targeted customers in order to meet the financial objectives. Generally, customers view the firm in terms of time, quality, performance, and cost. Most customer objectives fall into one of those four categories.  subroutine objectives address the question of which processes are most critical for satisfying customers and shareholders. These are the processes in which the firm must concentrate its efforts to excel.5. Discuss how the changes made to Porter Novellis talent management system impact organizational performance.Carter, L.  Goldsmith, M. (2010) changes made to Porter    Novellis talent management system impact organizational performance to meet the needs of todays organizations, this  handbook is filled with practical advice on how to implement employee and customer-centered programs that emphasize consensus building self, group, organizational, and one-on-one awareness and effective communication clear connections to overall business objectives and quantifiable business results. With lessons from companies that are widely recognized as among the best in organization change and leadership development, for succeeding during challenging times. As best practice organizational champions, these companies share many similar attributes including openness to learning and collaboration, humility, innovation and creativity, integrity, a high regard for peoples needs and perspectives, and a passion for change. And all these outstanding organizations have invested in human capital the most important asset inside of organizations today. Porter Novellis talent m   anagement system offers lessons from the worlds best organizations in various industries and sizes, and shows how to identify the key elements of leading successful, results-driven talent management access the tools, models, instruments, and strategies for leading talent management apply practical how-to approaches to diagnosing, assessing, designing, implementing, coaching, following-up on, and evaluating talent management and measure critical success factors and critical failure factors of a program. No matter what the size or mission of the organization for diagnosing, assessing, designing, implementing, coaching, and evaluating a winning team of talent.

First-principles Study of Spin Transport in Si-C Nanotube
First-principles Study of Spin Transport in Si-C NanotubeFirst-principles study of   distortion out transport in Si-C nanotube with ferromagnetic contactsSurendra Jalu summary We perform first-principles calculations of  gyrate-dependent quantum transport in a  twain-probe device, viz. Fe-SiCNT-Fe device in which (8,0) Si-C nanotube is sandwiched between two Fe electrodes. Substantial burrow magnetoresistance and perfect  wrench filtration  return  ar  hold uped. The  vigor  preconceived idea  delve magnetoresistance is found to be several hundred percent, it reduces monotonic every(prenominal)y till the  preconception voltage 0.4 V, sees marginal increase at the  prejudice of 0.6 V, and eventually goes to nearly  vigour   aft(prenominal)(prenominal) the  twist voltage of about 1 V. The  reel injection factor is 100% at the zero  persuade, it reduces sharply to 57% at the bias of 0.4 V, and remains reasonably  gamey, in the range of 60%-75%, after the bias voltage of 0.6 V when the m   agnetic  strains of two electrodes are parallel. The spin-dependent non-equilibrium transport features can be understood by analyzing microscopic details of the  transmission coecients.Keywords  First-principles Tunnel magnetoresistance(TMR) Spin injection One-dimensional Spin  dawnI. IntroductionSi-C crystals  guide unique properties, including thermal stability, chemical inertness, high thermal conductivity, and others. These properties make Si-C materials an appropriate candidate for fabricating electronic devices operating in high power, high temperature environments. Recently synthesized Si-C nanometer materials, such as nanorods, nanowires and nanotubes,  obtain attracted tremendous interest (1-4). These materials obviously broadened the application range of the Si-C crystals, especially in fabricating nanometer gas sensors, electronic devices, field emitters and other novel devices.Silicon carbide nanotubes have a great potential for application in chemical and biological sen   sors (Taguchia et al 2005a Xie et al 2007). Recently, scientists have suggested to make silicon carbide nanotubes (SiCNTs) as a possible alternative to carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for field emitting applications (Taguchia et al 2005b Alfieri and Kimoto 2010), which has boosted the interest for SiCNTs and several studies on the electronic properties of SiCNTs can be found in the literature (Mavrandonakis et al 2003 Mpourmpakis et al 2006 Larina et al 2007 Muralidharan et al 2007 Wu and Guo 2007 Lakshmi et al 2008 Moradian et al 2008 Raidongia et al 2008 Voggu et al 2008 Wu et al 2008 Manna and Pati 2010 Zheng et al 2010). It is  substantially known that CNTs undergo a semiconductor to metal transition (SMT) (Ren et al 2009) or metal to semiconductor transition (MST) (Lu et al 2003) when deformed. Therefore, it is of interest to understand how the semiconducting (8,0) SiCNT would behave when it is brought in contact with ferromagnetic electrodes.On account of  essential applications in ma   gnetoresistive random access memory 1, programm satisfactory logic elements 2 and magnetic sensors, the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) effects in systems with spin-polarized transport are at the heart of spintronics 3 and attract many theoretical and experimental  probes. A basic magnetic tunnel  marijuana cigarette (MTJ) device consists of tunnel barrier separating two ferromagnetic (FM) layers which play the role of device leads. During a tunneling process, the spin-up and spin-down electrons from the metal layers traverse the nonmagnetic tunnel barrier with  opposite femtometer  vagabond function due to electronic structure of the ferromagnetic material. The electrical resistance of MTJ is therefore sensitive to the relative orientation of the magnetic  strain of the electrodes,  effecting to a TMR 4. Hence, the MTJs behave as spin valves 48. It is possible to control the orientation of magnetic moments by imposing an external magnetic field in e   xperiments 9,10. It is important to note that, MgO-based MTJ has progressed at a  quick pace in recent years and produced the highest measured TMR at room temperature.When the electrodes and the tunnel barrier are all one-dimensional (1D) materials such as nanowires or nanotubes, it is experimentally feasible to achieve MTJ at the 1D scale. It is worth mentioning that Wang et al. 12 construct a 1D TMJ using Fe-doped carbon nanotubes and theoretically   suss out its spin-dependent transport properties. What is a pity that, the zero bias magnetoresistance ratio is only  40%, which may restrict the spintronics applications in nanodevices where the large magnetoresistance ratio is desirable. Here, we theoretically  investigate the spin-polarized transport of a 1D MTJ constructed by (8,0) SiCNT in contact with FM(Fe) electrodes. It is  discover that (8,0) SiCNTs are semiconducting and we believe that it can be  routined as a tunnel barrier for 1D or molecular(a)-scaled MTJ. In our work,    We have chosen (8,0) SiCNT as the tunnel barrier and two semi-infinite FM materials, namely Fe, as electrodes. Significant TMR and perfect spin filtration effect are obtained according to the first-principles calculations of spin-polarized quantum transport by adopting non-equilibrium Greens function method combined with density-functional theory. TMR has already led to the construction of the present  genesis of magnetic data storage devices. However, in order to reach storage densities of the order of Terabit/inch2, a substantial down-scaling of the read/write devices is extensively expected. Such 1D MTJ and spin filter with diameter less than 1 nm may realize the storage densities of the order of Terabit/inch2 and hold promise for extensive spintronics applications of nanodevices.II. Model and methodOur investigation is based on a recently developed self-consistent first-principles proficiency which combines the Keldysh non-equilibrium Greens-function formalism (NEGF) with a self   -consistent density-functional theory (DFT). The package we use is the Atomistix Toolkit 20, which incorporates the NEGF technique into the well tested SIESTA method 21 to realize the simulation of electrical or spin-polarized quantum transport in the molecular conductors under non-equilibrium situations. In the calculation, the local density theme (LDA) in the form of the Perdew and Zunger 22 (perdew burke ernzerhof) exchange-correlation functional is used. Only valence electrons are self-consistently  work out, and the atomic cores are described by standard norm conserving pseudopotential 23. The valence wave functions are expanded by the localized numerical (pseudo) atom orbitals 24. The k-points sampling is 3, 3, and 200 in the x, y, and z direction, which has been proven to be enough to  nominate the converged results. The  crossway criterion for the Hamiltonian, charge density, and band-structure energy is 10-5 via the mixture of the Hamiltonian. The positions of C and Fe atom   s at the interface of the device are relaxed until the force tolerance 0.05 eV/ is achieved. The spin-current (spin-polarized charge current) is calculated 25 asI() = e/h  T()(E, Vb) F(E  L)  F(E  R) dE RWhere F is the FermiDirac distribution, L and R are the chemical potentials of  leave-electrode (L) and right-electrode (R) respectively, T()(E, Vb) is the transmission coecient for spin  expect (  ,  ) at the energy E and bias voltage Vb.While building SiCNT, it is utterly important to use optimum bond-length between Si and C atoms to obtain correct results which in our case, as mentioned in various literatures, is 1.78 . We couldnt find the optimum bond-length between C and Fe atoms in literature but we were able to optimize a geometry that consisted of only a few atoms of Fe and C and this way we found the optimum bond-length between Fe and C atoms to be 2.04  (Fig. 4 (b)). The  social unit system (Fig. R) is divided into three parts from  left-hand(a) to right in practical theor   etical simulations the left electrode, the central scattering region, and the right electrode. The left electrode and right electrode are exactly the same and are made of Fe atoms. Si-C nanotube acts as central scattering region between two electrodes. The whole structure contains 328 atoms (192 Fe, 72 C, 64 Si). 4 (a) 4 (b) Fig. 4(a) Fe-C bond-lengths in non-optimized geometry 4(b) Fe-C bond lengths in optimized geometryFig. 4(c) Fe-SiCNT-Fe deviceIII. results and discussionsFig. 2(a) and (b) plot the currentvoltage (IV) characteristics for the parallel magnetization configuration (PC) and the antiparallel magnetization configuration (APC) of the two electrodes, respectively. In the case of PC, the spin-up current (I) are always much larger than the spin-up current (I). The I increases steeply with bias voltage especially after the bias of 0.8 V while on the other hand I is  just about negligibly small compared to I at  just about all bias voltages. The total equilibrium conductanc   e of 0.0022G0 is found at zero bias, where G0 is the conductance quanta, G0 = 2e2/h. In the case of APC, I and I have almost the same  determine at all bias voltages. The total equilibrium conductance of 0.0095G0 is found at zero bias.From the IV curves, we infer a TMR ratio using the  public definition TMR = (IAPC  IPC)/IAPC, where IPC and IAPC are the total currents in PC and APC, respectively. At Vb = 0 when all currents vanish, we calculate TMR using equilibrium conductance. Fig. 2(c) shows the TMR, where the RTMR  322% at zero bias is obtained, which  sharpen in the perfect tunneling magnetoresistance effect. It sharply decreases to  80% at the bias voltage of 0.4 V, sees slight increase at the bias voltage of 0.6 V and gets reduced to almost zero after the bias voltage of 1 V. The TMR decrease with bias voltages because IPC increases at higher rate with bias voltages than IAPC. It is possible for TMR to assume negative  encourage but in our case no such behavior is observed. T   he device structure presented here indeed has substantial TMR and could be utilized for spintronics applications.The spin-injection factor  which is  delineate by spin currents  = mod(I  I) / (I + I) are plotted in Fig. 2(d). At the bias voltage of 0.0 V, the current is 0 A and hence we use the equilibrium conductance represent current. For the case of PC,  is 99% at the zero bias, it monotonically reduces to 57%at the bias voltage of 0.4 and it increases and remains fairly wi make out large  set once the bias voltage goes beyond 0.4 V. The spin-injection factor  is as large as 73% at the bias of 1.2 V and may even  rectify at higher bias voltages. For the case of APC, the  is meager 49% at the zero bias. Its dramatic that it reaches 85% at the bias voltage of 0.2 V but then it keeps reducing with increase in bias voltages and attains very negligible values at the bias of about 1 V to 1.2 V. From Fig.R it is observed that in the case of PC the spin filtration effect manifests itself    very clearly when the bias is above 0.4 V while in the case of APC no such effect is seen. The source of this behavior maybe originates from the quantum size effect which results in the quantized subbands in the cross section of 1D electrode. Detailed analysis is in the below. Spin injection into semiconductors has been measured experimentally using the optical techniques 26,27. Such 1D TMJ controlled spin injection into semiconductors should occur in devices that are smaller than a spin relaxation length in extent and have resistance that is limited by the insulating BNNT.The voltage dependent of spin current, TMR ratio and spin-injection factor can be understood from the behavior of the transmission coecients  T (E, Vb)  , since the current is essentially given by the energy integral of the T (E, Vb) over the bias window see Eq. (1). The T (E, Vb) for several bias are shown in Fig. 3, where the (a) and (b) are spin-up and spin- down channel of PC setup respectively and the (c) an   d (d) arespin-up and spin-down channel of APC setup respectively. For  some(prenominal) PC and APC setup, these bias-depended T(E,Vb) have several sharp peaks especially after the bias of 0.35 V, due to quantized subbands in the cross section of the 1D electrodes, already mentioned above. The spin up channel contribute to the T(E,Vb) above the Fermi  train and spin-down channel contribute both above and below the Fermi level. Refer to the notation from molecular transport theory 28 we can deduce that the spin-up channel conductance is through the lowest un employed molecular orbital (LUMO) while the spin-down channel conductance is through both the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and LUMO of pristine (6,0) BNNT in scattering region.From Fig. 3(a), one can see that the T (E, Vb) shifts to high energy but roughly maintains its shape when bias increases. The T (E, Vb) are all almost absolutely inhibited in spin-up channels around Fermi level, while in the spin-down channel th   e T (E, Vb) is  equable and several orders of magnitude larger than in spin-up channel around Fermi level. This is why the I linearly increases while the I is inhibited under the bias of 0.75 V, already discussed above for Fig. 2(a). As the bias increases, the electrochemical potential in the left electrode (L) is shifted down, and that in the right electrode (R) is shifted up. Hence, the bands in the two electrodes are shifted correspondingly 2932. When the bias increase beyond 0.75 V, a little resonance states A1 are induced around Fermi level showed in Fig. 3(a) for the bias of 0.75, 0.95 and 1.15 V, which originate from the alignment of the LUMO of left electrodewith the HOMO of right electrode in spin-up channel because the bands in the two electrodes are shifted. These resonance states significantly enhance as bias increasing, which result in the rapid increase about I after the bias of 0.75 V. Consequently, the rapid increase of I also leads to the rapid decrease about  for P   C setup after 0.75 V, already discussed above for Fig. 2(c).The bias dependent T (E, Vb) for APC setup are more complex than PC setup. From Fig. 3(c), one can see that the T (E, Vb) in spin-up channel roughly maintains its shape when bias increases. A little resonance states A2 below Fermi level, which presents for the bias of 0.00 and 0.15 V are removed after the bias of 0.15 V. As the bias increase, only a little resonance states above the Fermi level enter to the transport window (i.e., the part of transmission function in the bias window integrated to obtain the current) and contribute to the I, which result in very slow increase of the I.  after(prenominal) the bias of 0.15 V, the T (E, Vb) shifts to larger energy and large resonance states are induced around Fermi level due to the alignment of spin-down states around Fermi level of left electrode with HOMO of right electrode in spin-down channel because the bands in the two electrodes are shifted. These induced resonance state   s continuously enhance as bias increase, which result in rapid increase of I. Eventually, the total current for APC setup exceed PC setup after the bias of 0.75 V, result in negative RTMR, already discussed above for Fig. 2(c). As mentioned above, the quantum size effect leads to the quantized subbands in the cross section of 1D electrode. Hence, there are two peaks in the induced resonance states around Fermi level after the bias of 0.35 V, showed in Fig. 3(d). When T (E, Vb) continuously shifts to higher energies, these two peaks pass the Fermi level one by one, which cause the oscillation about the spin-down conductance. Thus, the spin injection factor  is oscillating with bias in the APC setup.IV. conclusionWe theoretically investigate the spin-polarized transport properties of V atoms doped (6,0) single-wall BNNT using non-equilibrium Greens-function formalism with a self-consistent density- functional theory. The RTMR is as high as 789% at the bias of 0.05 V. It decays to zero    and eventually to negative values when bias is increased. The ratio of spin injection is not below 99% until the bias of 0.55 V when the magnetic configurations of two electrodes are parallel. When the magnetic configurations of two electrodes are antiparallel, the ratio of spin injection oscillates with the bias. Our calculations indicate that it could design perfect 1D MTJs and spin filter using TMs doped BNNTs. The perfect TMR effect and spin filter effect are obtained.ReferencesThe template will number citations consecutively within brackets 1. The sentence punctuation follows the bracket 2.
