60. Even in all-metallic junctions the differences can be great between the F region with (Equation presented) nm for Co, Py, or Ni, and the N region with (Equation presented) nm for Al or Cu at 300 K.
61. As discussed in Ref. [21], this equation can be mapped to Eq. (A11) from M. Johnson and R. H. Silsbee, Phys. Rev. B 35, 4959 (1987) PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.35.4959.

64. While it is often suggested that this obstacle can be removed using half-metallic ferromagnets, a careful analysis of Ref. [56] reveals subtleties in this argument.
65. A similar result was recognized using the arguments of irreversible thermodynamics to study spin injection. M. Johnson and R. H. Silsbee, Phys. Rev. B 37, 5312 (1988). PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.37.5312

81. Without the vdW. method, Ni/Gr junction was studied even before the graphene research was well established. G. Bertoni, L. Calmels, A. Altibelli, and V. Serin, Phys. Rev. B 71, 075402 (2005) PRBMDO 1098-0121 10.1103/PhysRevB.71.075402.

83. In earlier vdW-DF implementations, the C1-Ni1 binding distance was (Equation presented)% larger than in experiments, M. Vanin, J. J. Mortensen, A. K. Kelkkanen, J. M. Garcia-Lastra, K. S. Thygesen, and K. W. Jacobsen, Phys. Rev. B 81, 081408 (R) (2010). PRBMDO 1098-0121 10.1103/PhysRevB.81.081408

85. The vdW-DF functional contains two contributions to the correlation energy: (i) LDA of the homogeneous electron gas-both local and nonlocal, because the LDA is the analytical solution for a homogeneous electron gas. (ii) A nonlocal contribution to the inhomogeneous deviation in (Equation presented), given in Eq. (3). Consequently, very close points in space will not have a large mutual nonlocal correlation energy contribution. Typically such points in space are of similar (Equation presented), covered by the LDA part. The most prominent contributions in (Equation presented) will appear in parts of the system which are brought closer together so that they interact via the vdW interaction.

88. Such a depleted charge tends to have two spatially close lumps. A more elaborate analysis reveals that a significant contribution to the interaction is intralump, rather than interlump. P.
