Relativistic massless charged particles in a two-dimensional conductor can be guided by a one-dimensional electrostatic potential, in an analogous manner to light guided by an optical fiber. We use a carbon nanotube to generate such a…
A microscopic mechanism for chiral superconductivity from Coulomb repulsion is proposed for spin- and valley-polarized state of rhombohedral multilayer graphene. The superconducting state occurs at low density, has chiral $p$-wave pairing…
The perfect transmission in graphene monolayer and the perfect reflection in Bernal graphene bilayer for electrons incident in the normal direction of a potential barrier are viewed as two incarnations of the Klein paradox. Here we show a…
The unique ultra-relativistic, massless, nature of electron states in two-dimensional extended graphene sheets, brought about by the honeycomb lattice arrangement of carbon atoms in two-dimensions, provides ingress to explorations of…
In contrast to the well recognized transverse-electric-field-induced half-metallicity in zigzag graphene nanoribbons, here we demonstrate by first-principles calculations that zigzag graphene nanoribbons sandwiched between hexagonal boron…
Magnetic graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have become promising candidates for future applications, including quantum technologies. Here, we characterize magnetic states hosted by chiral graphene nanoribbons (chGNRs). The substitution of a…
Valley-dependent topological physics offers a promising avenue for designing nanoscale devices based on gapless single-layer graphene. To demonstrate this potential, we investigate an electrical bias-controlled topological discontinuity in…
The long standing controversy concerning the effect of electron - electron interaction on the electrical conductivity of an ideal graphene sheet is settled. Performing the calculation directly in the tight binding approach without the usual…
The functionalized graphene with induced superconductivity, Zeeman coupling, and finite Rashba spin-orbit coupling is proposed to display topological superconducting phases with Majorana end modes. We obtain the phase diagram of bulk…
An analytical study of low-energy electronic excited states in an uniformly strained graphene is carried out up to second-order in the strain tensor. We report an new effective Dirac Hamiltonian with an anisotropic Fermi velocity tensor,…
In this study, we investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of graphane nanoribbons. We find that zigzag and armchair graphane nanoribbons with H-passivated edges are nonmagnetic semiconductors. While bare armchair ribbons are also…
We describe the results of a theoretical study of transport through gated metallic graphene nanoribbons using a non-equilibrium Green function method. Although analogies with quantum field theory predict perfect transmission of chiral…
We study the effect of sublattice symmetry breaking on the electronic, magnetic and transport properties of two dimensional graphene as well as zigzag terminated one and zero dimensional graphene nanostructures. The systems are described…
The response of Dirac fermions to a Coulomb potential is predicted to differ significantly from the behavior of non-relativistic electrons seen in traditional atomic and impurity systems. Surprisingly, many key theoretical predictions for…
We study gap solitons which appear in the topological gap of 1D bosonic dimer chains within the mean-field approximation. We find that such solitons have a non-trivial texture of the sublattice pseudospin. We reveal their chiral nature by…
Recent experiments have demonstrated the possibility to design highly controllable junctions on magic angle twisted bilayer graphene, enabling the test of its superconducting transport properties. We show that the presence of chiral pairing…
We study forward scattering of 2D massless Dirac electrons at Fermi energy {\varepsilon} > 0 in single layer graphene through a 1D rectangular barrier of height {u_0} in the presence of uniform Rashba spin-orbit coupling (of strength…
Graphene nanoribbons are widely regarded as promising building blocks for next-generation carbon-based devices. A critical issue to their prospective applications is whether and to what degree their electronic structure can be externally…
Spin-hosting graphene nanostructures are promising metal-free systems for elementary quantum spintronic devices. Conventionally, spins are protected from quenching by electronic bandgaps, which also hinder electronic access to their quantum…
We study the low-energy bandstructure of armchair and small-bandgap semiconducting carbon nanotubes with proximity-induced superconducting pairing when a spiral magnetic field creates strong effective spin-orbit interactions from the Zeeman…
