Abstract
The spin polarization and the valley and spin-dependent shot noise properties in monolayer MoS2-based superlattice in presence of the extrinsic and intrinsic Rashba spin–orbit interaction (ERSOI and IRSOI) are theoretically investigated using the transfer-matrix approach. It is shown that spin-polarization can be adjusted via the electrostatic barrier height, the number of superlattice barriers, and the ERSOI strength. The spin and valley-dependent Fano factor through the monolayer MoS2 superlattice was calculated and analyzed. It was found that the Fano factor depends on the valley and spin degrees of freedom, the electrostatic barrier height, the number of MoS2 superlattice barriers (N), and ERSOI strength. The Fano factor has a Poissonian value for some values of the barrier height. Moreover, it was found that the Fano factor has a gap with respect to the ERSOI strength. Also, when \(N \ge 5\), the Fano factor approaches 1 for one of the valleys.
