Graphene charge carriers behave as relativistic massless fermions, thereby exhibiting a variety of counter-intuitive behaviors. In particular, at p-n junctions, they behave as photons encountering a negative index media, therefore…

Intrinsic bilayer graphene is a gapless semimetal. Under the application of a bias field it becomes a semiconductor with a direct band gap that is proportional to the applied field. Under a layer-asymmetric strain (where the upper layer…
