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…

We report on the design and experimental validation of a two-dimensional phononic elastic waveguide exhibiting topological Valley-Hall edge states. The lattice structure of the waveguide is inspired by the diatomic graphene and it is…

The magnetic field dependence of energy levels in gapped single- and bilayer graphene quantum dots (QDs) defined by electrostatic gates is studied analytically in terms of the Dirac equation. Due to the absence of sharp edges in these types…

This work performs a numerical study of electron transport through the fundamental logic gate in valleytronics - a valley valve consisting of two or increasing number of valley filters. Various typical effects on the transport are…

Within the first principle calculations, we propose a boron and nitrogen cluster incorporated graphene system for efficient valley polarization. The broken spatial inversion symmetry results in high Berry curvature at K and K' valleys of…

Proximity effects resulting from depositing a graphene layer on a TMD substrate layer change the dynamics of the electronic states in graphene, inducing spin orbit coupling (SOC) and staggered potential effects. An effective Hamiltonian…

Using the tight-binding model, we investigate the valley current of the `low-bi-up' and `low-bi-low' graphene junction, where `low' and `up' are respectively the lower and upper graphene layers extended from the central AB stacking bilayer…

A valley plasmonic crystal for graphene surface plasmons (GSPs) is proposed. We demonstrate that a designer metagate, placed within a few nanometers from graphene, can be used to impose a triangular periodic Fermi energy landscape on the…

We theoretically investigate the effects of strain-induced pseudomagnetic fields on the transmission probability and the ballistic conductance for Dirac fermion transport in suspended graphene. We show that resonant tunneling through double…

Ballistic point contact (BPC) with zigzag edges in graphene is a main candidate of a valley filter, in which the polarization of the valley degree of freedom can be selected by using a local gate voltage. Here, we propose to detect the…

The linear conductance spectrum of a metallic graphene junction formed by interconnecting two gapless graphene nanoribbons is calculated. A strong conductance suppression appears in the vicinity of the Dirac point. We found that such a…

Gapped 2D Dirac materials, in which inversion symmetry is broken by a gap-opening perturbation, feature a unique valley transport regime. The system ground state hosts dissipationless persistent valley currents existing even when…

We investigate the valley relaxation due to intervalley coupling in a single-electron bilayer graphene quantum dot. The valley relaxation is assisted by both the emission of acoustic phonons via the deformation potential and bond-length…

The generation of a fully valley-polarized current (FVPC) in bulk graphene is a fundamental goal in valleytronics. To this end, we investigate valley-dependent transport through a strained graphene modulated by a finite magnetic…

The existence of inequivalent valleys K and K' in the momentum space of two-dimensional hexagonal lattices provides a new electronic degree of freedom, the manipulation of which can potentially lead to new types of electronics, in analogy…

We demonstrate that the influence of Kerr effect on valley-Hall topological transport in graphene metasurfaces can be used to implement an all-optical switch. In particular, by taking advantage of the large Kerr coefficient of graphene, the…

Topologically protected chiral states at a mass-inverted quantum dot in graphene are studied by analyzing both tight-binding and kernal polynomial method calculations. The mass-inverted quantum dot is introduced by considering a…

In graphene, the valleys represent spin-like quantities and can act as a physical resource in valley-based electronics to novel quantum computation schemes. Here we demonstrate a direct route to tune and read the valley quantum states of…

The breaking of time-reversal symmetry is a crucial ingredient to topological bands. It can occur intrisically in materials with magnetic order, or be induced by external fields, such as magnetic fields in quantum Hall systems, or…

It is now well-established that photonic systems can exhibit topological energy bands; similar to their electronic counterparts, this leads to the formation of chiral edge modes which can be used to transmit light in a manner that is…
