We study theoretically the coherent electron focusing in graphene nanoribbons. Using semiclassical and numerical tight binding calculations we show that perfect armchair edges give rise to equidistant peaks in the focusing spectrum. In the…
The magnetoconductance of graphene nanoribbons with rough zigzag and armchair edges is studied by numerical simulations. nanoribbons with sufficiently small bulk disorder show a pronounced magnetoconductance minimum at cyclotron radii close…
We propose a class of graphene nanoribbons showing strong intrinsic ferromagnetic behavior due to their asymmetry. Such ribbons are based on a zig-zag edged backbone surmounted by a periodic, triangular notched region of variable size. The…
Density functional theory calculations are used to investigate the electronic structures of localized states at reconstructed armchair graphene edges. We consider graphene nanoribbons with two different edge types and obtain the energy band…
Using a model Hamiltonian approach including electron-electron interactions, we systematically investigate the electronic structure and magnetic properties of chiral graphene nanoribbons. We show that the presence of magnetic edge states is…
With advanced synthetic techniques, a wide variety of well-defined graphene nano-ribbons (GNRs) can be produced with atomic precision. Hence, finding the relation between their structures and properties becomes important for the rational…
The conductance of graphene nanoribbons and nanoconstrictions under the effect of a scanning gate microscopy tip is systematically studied. Using a scattering approach for noninvasive probes, the first- and second-order conductance…
The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of armchair graphene nanoribbons under a local uniaxial tension are investigated by using first principles quantum transport calculations. It is shown that for a given value of bias-voltage, the…
We study the low energy spin excitations of zigzag graphene nanoribbons of varying width. We find their energy dispersion at small wave vector to be dominated by antiferromagnetic correlations between the ribbon's edges, in accrodance with…
The ab initio band structure of 2D graphene sheet is well reproduced by the third nearest neighbor tight binding model proposed by Reich et al [Phys. Rev. B 66, 035412]. For ribbon structures, the existing sets of tight binding parameters…
We investigate the functionalization of functional groups to graphene nanoribbons with zigzag and armchair edges using first principles calculations. We find that the formation energy for the configuration of the functional groups…
Graphene nanoribbons are quasi-one-dimensional meterials with finite width. Characterizing a wide class of nanoribbons by edge shape and width, we make a systematic analysis of their electronic properties. The band gap structure of…
Nanomagnets are the building blocks of many existing and emergent spintronic technologies. Magnetization dynamics of nanomagnets is often dominated by nonlinear processes, which have been recently shown to have many surprising features and…
Quantum size effects in armchair graphene nano-ribbons (AGNR) with hydrogen termination are investigated via density functional theory (DFT) in Kohn-Sham formulation. "Selection rules" will be formulated, that allow to extract…
The interplay between uniaxial strain and charging effects in zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNR) is investigated by using non-equilibrium Green's function formalism. The I-V characteristic curves and especially negative differential…
We show that gated bilayer graphene zigzag ribbons possess a fast and a slow edge, characterized by edge state velocities that differ due to non-negligible next-nearest-neighbor hopping elements. By applying bosonization and renormalization…
Carbon-based magnetic structures promise significantly longer coherence times than traditional magnetic materials, which is of fundamental importance for spintronic applications. An elegant way of achieving carbon-based magnetic moments is…
Using first principles calculations, we studied a new class of graphdiyne nanoribbons (GDYNR) with open hexagonal rings on the edges.To avoid the effects from dangling bond, hydrogen or oxygen atoms were absorbed on the edges. There are two…
Stacking two-dimensional layered materials such as graphene and transitional metal dichalcogenides with nonzero interlayer twist angles has recently become attractive because of the emergence of novel physical properties. Stacking of…
We present the analytical solution of the wavefunction and energy dispersion of armchair graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) based on the tight-binding approximation. By imposing hard-wall boundary condition, we find that the wavevector in the…
