Even though graphene is a low energy system consisting of the two dimensional honeycomb lattice of carbon atoms, its quasi-particle excitations are fully described by the 2+1 dimensional relativistic Dirac equation. In this paper we show…
We address the problem of barrier tunneling in the two-dimensional T_3 lattice (dice lattice). In particular we focus on the low-energy, long-wavelength approximation for the Hamiltonian of the system, where the lattice can be described by…
We analyze the coupling of elastic lattice deformations to the magnon degrees of freedom of magnon Dirac materials. For a Honeycomb ferromagnet we find that, as it happens in the case of graphene, elastic gauge fields appear coupled to the…
The independent predictions of edge ferromagnetism and the Quantum Spin Hall phase in graphene have inspired the quest of other two dimensional honeycomb systems, such as silicene, germanene, stanene, iridiates, and organometallic lattices,…
Silicene, a monolayer of silicon atoms tightly packed into a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice, is the challenging hypothetical reflection in the silicon realm of graphene, a one-atom thick graphite sheet, presently the hottest material in…
Spin diode is important prerequisite to practical manifestation of spin electronics. Yet, a functioning magnetic diode at room temperature is still illusive. Here, we reveal diode-type phenomena due to magnetic charge mediated conduction in…
Recently, several new materials exhibiting massless Dirac fermions have been proposed. However, many of these do not have the typical graphene honeycomb lattice, which is often associated with Dirac cones. Here, we present a classification…
We analyze the spin-orbit coupling effects in a three-degree twisted bilayer heterostructure made of graphene and an in-plane ferroelectric SnTe, with the goal of transferring the spin-orbit coupling from SnTe to graphene, via the proximity…
The Dirac electrons of graphene, an intrinsic zero gap semiconductor, uniquely carry spin and pseudospin that give rise to many fascinating electronic and transport properties. While isolated zigzag graphene nanoribbons are…
Patterning graphene with a spatially-periodic potential provides a powerful means to modify its electronic properties. Dramatic effects have been demonstrated in twisted bilayers where coupling to the resulting moir\'e-superlattice yields…
The nature of the effective spin Hamiltonian and magnetic order in the honeycomb iridates is explored by considering a trigonal crystal field effect and spin-orbit coupling. Starting from a Hubbard model, an effective spin Hamiltonian is…
Inspired by the recent creation of the honeycomb optical lattice and the realization of the Mott insulating state in a square lattice by shaking, we study here the shaken honeycomb optical lattice. For a periodic shaking of the lattice, a…
Strain engineering of graphene takes advantage of one of the most dramatic responses of Dirac electrons enabling their manipulation via strain-induced pseudo-magnetic fields. Numerous theoretically proposed devices, such as resonant…
We study the spin transport phenomena in two-dimensional graphene-like materials with arbitrary tilted Dirac cones. The tilt arises due to next-nearest hopping when the bottom of the conduction band and top of the valence band does not…
A scalable tight-binding model is applied for large-scale quantum transport calculations in clean graphene subject to electrostatic superlattice potentials, including two types of graphene superlattices: moir\'e patterns due to the stacking…
We study spin-orbit proximity effects in a hybrid heterostructure build of a one-dimensional (1D) armchair carbon nanotube and two-dimensional (2D) buckled monolayer bismuthene. We show, by performing first-principles calculations, that…
One of the intriguing characteristics of honeycomb lattices is the appearance of a pseudo-magnetic field as a result of mechanical deformation. In the case of graphene, the Landau quantization resulting from this pseudo-magnetic field has…
The orbital diamagnetic susceptibility is calculated in monolayer and bilayer graphenes with band gap as well as in three-dimensional Dirac systems. It is demonstrated that the pseudo-spin degree of freedom such as valleys produces…
In this article we develop an effective medium model to characterize the electron wave propagation in graphene based nanostructures with an electrostatic and magnetic vector potentials imposed on their surface. We use a numerical algorithm…
We theoretically study the effect of the motion and the merging of Dirac cone on the interlayer magnetoresistance in multilayer graphene like systems. This merging, which could be induced by a uniaxial strain, gives rise in monolayer Dirac…
