Zero Energy States for a Class of Two-Dimensional Potentials in Graphene

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2018-11-14 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

The excitations in graphene and some other materials are described by two-dimensional massless Dirac equation with applied external potential of some kind. Solutions of this zero energy equation are built analytically for a wide class of scalar potentials. In contrast to most publications on analytical solutions of massless two-dimensional Dirac equation, our potentials really depend on both spatial coordinates in some bounded domain. Several examples of such construction are given explicitly.
