A p-n junction, induced in graphene by gating, works to contrast the edge states of electrons and holes on each side of it. In a magnetic field those edge states carry two species of persistent current, which are intimately tied to the…
In this paper we investigate the relativistic quantum dynamics of a massive excitation in a graphene layer with a wedge disclination in the presence of an uniform magnetic field. We use a Dirac oscillator type coupling to introduce the…
Using the standard tight binding model of 2d graphite with short range electron repulsion, we find a gapless spin-1, neutral collective mode branch {\em below the particle-hole continuum} with energy vanishing linearly with momenta at the…
We compare the conductance of an undoped graphene sheet with a small region subject to an electrostatic gate potential for the cases that the dynamics in the gated region is regular (disc-shaped region) and classically chaotic (stadium).…
The rapid emergence of flying qubits in graphene and other low-dimensional conductors is pushing quantum electronics into an ultrafast regime where conventional transport theories no longer apply. In these systems, single-electron wave…
We study the energy levels of Dirac-Weyl fermions in graphene subject to a magnetic field with Rashba contribution in the minimal length situation. The exact solution for the energy dispersion of Dirac-like charge carriers coupled to the…
Carbon based systems are prominent candidates for a solid-state spin-qubit due to weak spin-orbit and hyperfine interactions in combination with a low natural abundance of spin carrying isotopes. We consider the effect of the hyperfine…
Electrons in monolayer graphene in the presence of an electromagnetic (or electric) wave are considered theoretically. It is shown that the electron motion is a nonlinear combination of Zitterbewegung (ZB, trembling motion) resulting from…
We characterise the dynamics of electrons in twisted bilayer graphene by analysing the time-evolution of electron waves in the atomic lattice. We perform simulations based on a kernel polynomial technique using Chebyshev polynomial; this…
We have investigated a new feature of impurity cyclotron resonances common to various localized potentials of graphene. A localized potential can interact with a magnetic field in an unexpected way in graphene. It can lead to formation of…
We theoretically investigate electron transport through corrugated graphene ribbons and show how the ribbon curvature leads to an electronic superlattice with a period set by the corrugation wave length. Transport through the ribbon depends…
Predictions state that graphene can spontaneously develop magnetism from the Coulomb repulsion of its $\pi$-electrons, but its experimental verification has been a challenge. Here, we report on the observation and manipulation of individual…
The electronic properties of graphene have been intensively investigated over the last decade, and signatures of the remarkable features of its linear Dirac spectrum have been displayed using transport and spectroscopy experiments. In…
Graphene plasmons have recently attracted a great deal of attention because of their tunability, long lifetime, and high degree of field confinement in the vertical direction. Nearby metal gates have been shown to modify the graphene…
We present an elaborate and systematic study of the conductance properties of a zigzag bilayer graphene nanoribbon modeled by a Kane-Mele (KM) Hamiltonian. The interplay of the Rashba and the intrinsic spin-orbit couplings with the edge…
Graphene, the atomic-thin layer of carbon atoms, was first isolated on an insulating substrate in 2004 by two groups in Manchester University [1, 2] and Columbia [3]. Those milestone experiments established the Dirac nature of the charge…
We demonstrate that the plasmon frequency and Drude weight of the electron liquid in a doped graphene sheet are strongly renormalized by electron-electron interactions even in the long-wavelength limit. This effect is not captured by the…
The Zitterbewegung (ZB) effect is investigated in graphene with spacially modulated potential near the original Dirac point (ODP) and extra Dirac points (EDPs). Our calculations show that to get the large ZB oscillations, the wave packet…
Topological non-trivial band structures are the core problem in the field of topological materials. In this paper, we investigate the topological band structure in a system with controllable Dirac points from the perspective of wave packet…
We use numerically exact Chebyshev expansion and kernel polynomial methods to study transport through circular graphene quantum dots in the framework of a tight-binding honeycomb lattice model. Our focus lies on the regime where individual…
