We study the effect of the strain on the band structure and the valley-dependent transport property of graphene heterojunctions. It is found that valley-dependent separation of electrons can be achieved by utilizing the strain and on-site…
Valley-polarized currents can be generated by local straining of multi-terminal graphene devices. The pseudo-magnetic field created by the deformation allows electrons from only one valley to transmit and a current of electrons from a…
In strained graphene, lattice deformation can create pseudo-magnetic fields and result in zero-field Landau level-like quantization. In the presence of an external magnetic field, valley-polarized Landau levels are predicted to be observed…
The aim of this work is to describe the electronic properties of graphene in a constant magnetic field in the long wavelength approximation with random binary disorder, by solving the Soven equation self-consistently. Density of state…
We show that the optical excitation of graphene with polarized light leads to the pure valley current where carriers in the valleys counterflow. The current in each valley originates from asymmetry of optical transitions and electron…
A pseudo-magnetic field kink can be realized along a graphene nanoribbon using strain engineering. Electron transport along this kink is governed by snake states that are characterized by a single propagation direction. Those…
We investigate the Goos-H\"anchen shift for ballistic electrons (i) reflected from a step-like inhomogeneity of the potential energy and (or) effective mass, and (ii) transmitted through a ferromagnetic barrier region in monolayer silicene…
The low energy band structure of graphene has two inequivalent valleys at K and K' points of the Brillouin zone. The possibility to manipulate this valley degree of freedom defines the field of valleytronics, the valley analogue of…
The theoretical results are presented showing that strain-induced anisotropy of graphene spectrum gives rise to the valley currents under the illumination by normally incident light. The currents of the two graphene valleys are mutually…
Due to its strong bonds graphene can stretch up to 25% of its original size without breaking. Furthermore, mechanical deformations lead to the generation of pseudo-magnetic fields (PMF) that can exceed 300 T. The generated PMF has opposite…
Here we study the evolution of local electronic properties of a twisted graphene bilayer induced by a strain and a high curvature. The strain and curvature strongly affect the local band structures of the twisted graphene bilayer; the…
We propose a simple, yet highly efficient and robust device for producing valley polarized current in graphene. The device comprises of two distinct components; a region of uniform uniaxial strain, adjacent to an out-of-plane magnetic…
Analogous to charge and spin, electrons in solids endows an additional degree of freedom: the valley pseudospin. Two-dimensional hexagonal materials such as graphene exhibit two valleys, labelled as $\mathbf{K}$ and $\mathbf{K}^{\prime}$.…
We study transport in twisted bilayer graphene and show that electrostatic barriers can act as valley splitters, where electrons from the $K$ ($K'$) valley are transmitted only to e.g.\ the top (bottom) layer, leading to valley-layer locked…
Valley filtering processes have been explored in different graphene-based configurations and scenarios to control transport responses. Here we propose graphene multi-terminal set-ups properly designed to obtain valley filtered currents in a…
It is quite easy to control spin polarization and spin direction of a system via magnetic fields. However, there is no such a direct and efficient way to manipulate valley pseudospin degree of freedom. Here, we demonstrate experimentally…
We study theoretically the electron current across a monolayer graphene/hexagonal boron nitride/bilayer graphene tunnelling junction in an external magnetic field perpendicular to the layers. We show that change in effective tunnelling…
We study the electron scattering produced by local out-of-plane strain deformations in the form of Gaussian bumps in graphene. Of special interest is to take into account the scalar field associated with the redistribution of charge due to…
We propose an all-electrical setup to generate valley polarization in graphene. A finite graphene sheet is connected to two normal metal electrodes each with two terminals along its zigzag edges, while the armchair edges remain free. When a…
Particular strain geometry in graphene could leads to a uniform pseudo-magnetic field of order 10T and might open up interesting applications in graphene nano-electronics. Through quantum transport calculations of realistic strained…
