Graphene is a unique two-dimensional material with rich new physics and great promise for applications in electronic devices. Physical phenomena such as the half-integer quantum Hall effect and high carrier mobility are critically dependent…
Electrons in two-dimensional graphene sheets behave as interacting chiral Dirac fermions and have unique screening properties due to their symmetry and reduced dimensionality. By using a combination of scanning tunneling spectroscopy…
The detailed analysis of the problem of possible magnetic behavior of the carbon-based structures was fulfilled to elucidate and resolve (at least partially) some unclear issues. It was the purpose of the present paper to look somewhat more…
Laterally localized electronic states are identified on a single layer of graphene on ruthenium. The individual states are separated by 3 nm and comprise regions of about 90 carbon atoms. This constitutes a quantum dot array, evidenced by…
Isotopic effects are relevant to understand several properties of solids, and have been thoroughly analyzed along the years. These effects may depend on the dimensionality of the considered solid. Here we assess their magnitude for…
The effect of vacancies on the robustness of zero-energy edge electronic states in zigzag-type graphene layer is studied at different concentrations and distributions of defects. All calculations are performed by using the Green's function…
Using density functional theory calculations we investigate the electronic structure of graphene doped by deposition of foreign atoms. We demonstrate that, as the charge transfer to the graphene layer increases, the band structure of the…
Motivated by graphene-based quantum computer we examine the time-dependence of the position-momentum and position-velocity uncertainties in the monolayer gapped graphene. The effect of the energy gap to the uncertainties is shown to appear…
We consider the problem of electron energy states related to strongly localized potential of a single impurity in graphene. Our model simulates the effect of impurity atom substituting the atom of carbon, on the energy spectrum of electrons…
This article reviews the basic theoretical aspects of graphene, a one atom thick allotrope of carbon, with unusual two-dimensional Dirac-like electronic excitations. The Dirac electrons can be controlled by application of external electric…
We investigate the mobility of structural defects, adatoms, and defect-adatom combinations in self-supporting graphene subjected to keV ion irradiation. In the first scenario, homogeneous irradiation using 20 keV Ar$^+$ ions at a dose of $3…
Understanding how foreign chemical species bond to atomic vacancies in graphene layers can advance our ability to tailor the electronic and magnetic properties of defective graphenic materials. Here we use ultra-high vacuum scanning…
Electronic instabilities at the crossing of the Fermi energy with a Van Hove singularity in the density of states often lead to new phases of matter such as superconductivity, magnetism or density waves. However, in most materials this…
Adsorption of hydrogen atoms to a carbon atom vacancy in graphene is investigated by means of periodic \emph{first principles} calculations, up to the fully hydrogenated state where six H atoms chemically bind to the vacancy. Addition of a…
We describe the effects of vacancies on the electronic properties of a graphene sheet in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field: from a single defect to an organized vacancy lattice. An isolated vacancy is the minimal possible inner…
Graphene corrugations affect hybridization of $\pi$ and $\sigma$ orbitals of carbon atoms in graphene based systems. It can as well break differently the symmetry of the electron transfer integrals for different strip boundaries. Using…
We discuss the fact that quantum capacitance of graphene-based devices leads to variation of it's charge density under changes of external magnetic field.The charge is conserved, but redistributes to substrate or other graphene sheet. We…
Massless Dirac fermions have been observed in various materials such as graphene and topological insulators in recent years, thus offering a solid-state platform to study relativistic quantum phenomena. Single quantum dots (QDs) and coupled…
We measure the two-dimensional elastic modulus $E^\text{2D}$ of atomically clean defect-engineered graphene with a known defect distribution and density in correlated ultra-high vacuum experiments. The vacancies are introduced via…
Mechanically exfoliated graphene layers deposited on SiO2 substrate were irradiated with Ar+ ions in order to experimentally study the effect of atomic scale defects and disorder on the low-energy electronic structure of graphene. The…
