We investigate electronic transport in lithographically patterned graphene ribbon structures where the lateral confinement of charge carriers creates an energy gap near the charge neutrality point. Individual graphene layers are contacted…
The electronic and transport properties of hybrid armchair zigzag nanostructures including U-shaped graphene nanoribbons and patterned nanopores structured graphene were studied using combination of density functional theory and…
Graphene is of interest in the development of next-generation electronics due to its high electron mobility, flexibility and stability. However, graphene transistors have poor on/off current ratios because of the absence of a bandgap. One…
We present electron transport measurements on lithographically defined and etched graphene nanoconstrictions with different aspect ratios including different lengths (L) and widths (W). A roughly length-independent disorder induced…
The electronic properties of graphene zig-zag nanoribbons with electrostatic potentials along the edges are investigated. Using the Dirac-fermion approach, we calculate the energy spectrum of an infinitely long nanoribbon of finite width…
We report an electron transport study of lithographically fabricated graphene nanoribbons of various widths and lengths at different temperatures. At the charge neutrality point, a length-independent transport gap forms whose size is…
Density functional calculations are employed to study the molecular dissociation of hydrogen on graphene, the diffusion of chemisorbed atomic species, and the electronic properties of the resulting hydrogen on graphene system. Our results…
We consider the nonequilibrium dispersion force acting on nanoparticles on the source side of gapped graphene sheet. Nanoparticles are kept at the environmental temperature, whereas the graphene sheet may be either cooler or hotter than the…
Recent progress in preparing well controlled 2D van der Waals heterojunctions has opened up a new frontier in materials physics. In this paper we address the intriguing energy gaps that are sometimes observed when a graphene sheet is placed…
We report a metal-insulator transition in disordered graphene with low coverages of hydrogen atoms. Hydrogen interacting with graphene creates short-range disorder and localizes states near the neutrality point. The energy range of…
We review the transmission of Dirac electrons through a potential barrier in the presence of circularly polarized light. A different type of transmission is demonstrated and explained. Perfect transmission for nearly head-on collision in…
The interaction between a graphene layer and a hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) substrate induces lateral displacements and strains in the graphene layer. The displacements lead to the appearance of commensurate regions and the existence of an…
In this Letter, we derive an effective theory of graphene on a hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN) substrate. We show that the h-BN substrate generically opens a spectral gap in graphene despite the lattice mismatch. The origin of that gap is…
The inhomogenous real-space electronic structure of gapless and gapped disordered bilayer graphene is calculated in the presence of quenched charge impurities. For gapped bilayer graphene we find that for current experimental conditions the…
Regular nanoscale perforations in graphene (graphene antidot lattices, GAL) are known to lead to a gap in the energy spectrum, thereby paving a possible way towards many applications. This theoretical prediction relies on a perfect…
We report a first-principles study on electronic structures of the deformed armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs). The variation of the energy gap of AGNRs as a function of uniaxial strain displays a zigzag pattern, which indicates that the…
We probe the local inhomogeneities of the electronic properties of graphene at the nanoscale using scanning probe microscopy techniques. First, we focus on the study of the electronic inhomogeneities caused by the graphene-substrate…
We investigate the adsorption of graphene sheets on h-BN substrates by means of first-principles calculations in the framework of adiabatic connection fluctuation-dissipation theory in the random phase approximation. We obtain adhesion…
Based on a first-principles approach, we present scaling rules for the band gaps of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) as a function of their widths. The GNRs considered have either armchair or zigzag shaped edges on both sides with hydrogen…
The complete theory of electrical conductivity of graphene at arbitrary temperature is developed with taken into account mass-gap parameter and chemical potential. Both the in-plane and out-of-plane conductivities of graphene are expressed…
