The $\pi$-electronic structure of graphene in the presence of a modulated electric potential is investigated by the tight-binding model. The low-energy electronic properties are strongly affected by the period and field strength. Such a…
We investigate the conductivity of doped graphene in the semiclassical Boltzmann limit, as well as the conductivity minimum within the self-consistent transport theory. Using the hard-disk model for a two-dimensional distribution of…
The capability to control the type and amount of charge carriers in a material and, in the extreme case, the transition from metal to insulator is one of the key challenges of modern electronics. By employing angle resolved photoemission…
Atomic-level structural changes in materials are important but challenging to study. Here, we demonstrate the dynamics and the possibility of manipulating a phosphorus dopant atom in graphene using scanning transmission electron microscopy…
Graphene, being one-atom thick, is extremely sensitive to the presence of adsorbed atoms and molecules and, more generally, to defects such as vacancies, holes and/or substitutional dopants. This property, apart from being directly usable…
We have theoretically investigated the electronic and magnetic properties of graphene whose zigzag edges are oxidized. The alteration of these properties by adsorption of $\mathrm{H_{2}O}$ and $\mathrm{NH_3}$ molecules have been considered.…
An anomalous distortion is often observed in the transfer characteristics of graphene field-effect transistors. We fabricate graphene transistors with ferromagnetic metal electrodes, which reproducibly display distorted transfer…
Graphene, a zero-gap semimetal, can be transformed into a metallic, semiconducting or insulating state by either physical or chemical modification. Superconductivity is conspicuously missing among these states despite considerable…
The effects of Au grains on graphene conduction and doping are investigated in this report. To obtain a clean Au-graphene contact, Au grains are deposited over graphene at elevated temperature and in high vacuum, before any chemical…
The doping of graphene to tune its electronic structure is essential for its further use in carbon based electronics. Adapting strategies from classical silicon based semiconductor technology, we use the incorporation of heteroatoms in the…
Coulomb coupling between proximal layers in graphene heterostructures results in efficient energy transfer between the layers. We predict that, in the presence of correlated density inhomogeneities in the layers, vertical energy transfer…
The distribution of net electric charge in graphene is investigated, using both a constitutive atomic charge-dipole interaction model and an approximate analytical solution to Laplace's equation. We demonstrate a strong size dependence of…
We have systematically investigated the effect of oxidation on the structural and electronic properties of graphene based on first-principles calculations. Energetically favorable atomic configurations and building blocks are identified,…
Graphene is a sturdy and chemically inert material exhibiting an exposed two-dimensional electron gas of high mobility. These combined properties enable the design of graphene composites either based on covalent or non- covalent coupling of…
In this paper, the effect of B and N doping on the phonon induced thermal conductivity of graphene has been investigated. This study is important when one has to evaluate the usefulness of electronic properties of B and N doped graphene. We…
Graphene-based plasmonic devices are regarded to be suitable for a plethora of applications, ranging from mid-infrared to terahertz frequencies. In this regard, among the peculiarities associated with graphene, it is well known that…

We report on a first-principles study of the conductance through graphene suspended between Al contacts as a function of junction length, width, and orientation. The charge transfer at the leads and into the freestanding section gives rise…
Tuning the macroscopic dielectric response on demand holds potential for actively tunable metaphotonics and optical devices. In recent years, graphene has been extensively investigated as a tunable element in nanophotonics. Significant…
Using a semi-classical approach and input from experiments on the conductivity of graphene, we determine the electronic density dependence of the electronic transport coefficients -- conductivity, thermal conductivity and thermopower -- of…
