Extended defects in graphene, such as linear edges, break the translational invariance and can also have an impact on the symmetries specific to massless Dirac-like quasiparticles in this material. The paper examines the consequences of a…
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 band structure of ABC-stacked N-layer graphene comprises topologically corresponding flat surface and gapped bulk subbands, as a consequence of the unique stacking configuration. In this paper, the bulk subbands are for the first times…
Bilayer graphene is a highly promising material for electronic and optoelectronic applications since it is supporting massive Dirac fermions with a tuneable band gap. However, no consistent picture of the gap's effect on the optical and…
This article provides a pedagogical review on Klein tunneling in graphene, i.e. the peculiar tunneling properties of two-dimensional massless Dirac electrons. We consider two simple situations in detail: a massless Dirac electron incident…
In this work we study theoretically the electronic properties of a sheet of graphene grown on a periodic heterostructure substrate. We write an effective Dirac equation, which includes a dependence of both the band gap and the Fermi…
We estimate the strength of interaction-enhanced coherence between two graphene or topological insulator surface-state layers by solving imaginary-axis gap equations in the random phase approximation. Using a self-consistent treatment of…
We present a description of the energy loss of a charged particle moving parallel to a graphene layer and graphene double layers. Specifically, we compare the stopping power of the plasma oscillations for these two configurations in the…
At the interface between two massless Dirac models with opposite helicity a paradoxical situation arises: A transversally impinging electron can seemingly neither be transmitted nor reflected, due to the locking between spin and momentum.…
We find a systematic reappearance of massive Dirac features at the edges of consecutive minibands formed at magnetic fields B_{p/q}= p\phi_0/(qS) providing rational magnetic flux through a unit cell of the moire superlattice created by a…
The realization of the unusual properties of 2-d materials requires the formation of large domains of single layer thickness, extending over the mesoscale. It is found that the formation of ideal graphene on SiC, contrary to textbook…
A remarkable manifestation of the quantum character of electrons in matter is offered by graphene, a single atomic layer of graphite. Unlike conventional solids where electrons are described with the Schrodinger equation, electronic…
In this work, we investigate the massive Kane-Mele model for graphene in the presence of disclination and an external magnetic field, where graphene behaviors as a topological insulator. In the low-energy limit, the effective field equation…
A quantum graph model for a single sheet of graphene is extended to bilayer and trilayer Bernal-stacked graphene; the spectra are characterized and the dispersion relations explicitly obtained; Dirac cones are then proven to be present only…
We study the tunneling of Dirac fermions in graphene through a double barrier potential allowing the carriers to have an effective mass inside the barrier as generated by a lattice miss-match with the boron nitride substrate. The…
We examine the 1/N expansion, where N is the number of two-component Dirac fermions, for Coulomb interactions in graphene with a gap of magnitude $\Delta = 2 m$. We find that for $N\alpha\gg1$, where $\alpha$ is graphene's "fine structure…
We have investigated theoretically the resonance splitting effect of Dirac electrons through graphene superlattices with periodic potentials of square barriers. It is found that each resonance peak in the transmission gap presents…
With considering the great success of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) studies of graphene in the past few years, it is quite surprising to notice that there is still a fundamental contradiction about the reported tunnelling spectra of…
We investigate, in the framework of macroscopic Dirac model, the spectrum, charge density and conductivity of metallic armchair graphene nanoribbons in presence of different mass terms. We reveal the conditions and symmetries governing the…
The gap equation for Dirac quasiparticles in monolayer graphene in constant magnetic and pseudomagnetic fields, where the latter is due to strain, is studied in a low-energy effective model with contact interactions. Analyzing solutions of…
