Altermagnets feature unconventional magnetism due to their momentum-dependent spin splitting purely driven by magnetic order, for which a variety of transition-metal-based d-wave altermagnets have been proposed. However, carbon-based…
Undoped graphene is semi-metallic and thus not suitable for many electronic and optoelectronic applications requiring gapped semiconductor materials. However, a periodic array of holes (antidot lattice) renders graphene semiconducting with…
Electronic and transport properties of Graphene, a one-atom thick crystalline material, are sensitive to the presence of atoms adsorbed on its surface. An ensemble of randomly positioned adatoms, each serving as a scattering center, leads…
Two opposite chiralities of Dirac electrons in a 2D graphene sheet modify the Friedel oscillations strongly: electrostatic potential around an impurity in graphene decays much faster than in 2D electron gas. At distances $r$ much larger…
The active photonics based on the two-dimensional material graphene has attracted enormous interests for developing the tunable and compact optical devices with high efficiency. Here we integrate graphene into the Fano-resonant…
We report the magnitude of the induced magnetic moment in CVD-grown epitaxial and rotated-domain graphene in proximity with a ferromagnetic Ni film, using polarized neutron reflectivity (PNR) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD).…
The mean-field Hubbard model is used to investigate the formation of the antiferromagnetic phase in hexagonal graphene rings with inner zigzag edges. The outer edge of the ring was taken to be either zigzag or armchair, and we found that…
Imprinting magnetism into graphene makes an important step to its applications in spintronics. An actively explored approach is proximity coupling of graphene to a 2D magnet. In these endeavors, the use of epitaxial graphene may bring…
Graphene is a nonmagnetic semimetal and cannot be directly used as electronic or spintronic devices. We demonstrate that graphene quantum dots (GQDs) can exhibit strong edge magnetism and tunable energy gaps due to the presence of localized…
Among the different strategies used to induce the opening of a band gap in graphene, one common practice is through chemical doping. While a gap may me opened in this way, disorder-induced scattering is an unwanted side-effect that impacts…
Understanding the magnetic properties of graphenic nanostructures is instrumental in future spintronics applications. These magnetic properties are known to depend crucially on the presence of defects. Here we review our recent theoretical…
It has been shown recently [J. L. Lado et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 027203 (2014)] that edge magnetic moments in graphene-like nanoribbons are strongly influenced by the intrinsic spin-orbit interaction. Due to this interaction an…
The effects of electron interaction on the magnetoconductance of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are studied within the Hartree approximation. We find that a perpendicular magnetic field leads to a suppression instead of an expected improvement…
In this review we highlight recent theoretical and experimental work on sublattice asymmetric doping of impurities in graphene, with a focus on substitutional Nitrogen dopants. It is well known that one current limitation of graphene in…
Recent low-temperature electron transport experiments in high-quality graphene rely on a technique of doped graphene leads, where the coupling between the graphene flake and its metallic contacts is increased by locally tuning graphene to…
Due to the weak spin-orbit interaction and the peculiar relativistic dispersion in graphene, there are exciting proposals to build spin qubits in graphene nanoribbons with armchair boundaries. However, the mutual interactions between…
We answer the question posed in the title above by considering theoretically the electron-electron interaction induced many-body effects in undoped (`intrinsic') and doped (`extrinsic') 2D graphene layers. We find that (1) intrinsic…
Since lattice strain and charge density affect various material properties of graphene, a reliable and efficient method is required for quantification of the two variables. While Raman spectroscopy is sensitive and non-destructive, its…
In the paper a theoretical study of critical (Curie) temperature of diluted ferromagnet based on multilayer graphene (or graphite) with hydrogen adatoms deposited over carbon atoms belonging to single sublattice is presented. The…
We report the electronic properties of two-dimensional systems made of graphene nanoribbons which are patterned with ad-atoms in two separated regions. Due to the extra electronic confinement induced by the presence of the impurities, we…
