Graphite is a well-studied material with known electronic and optical properties. Graphene, on the other hand, which is just one layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, has been studied theoretically for quite some time but…

We consider the classical motion of a massless quasi-particle in a magnetic field and under a weak electromagnetic radiation with the frequency $\omega$. Due to the non-parabolic, linear energy dispersion, the particle responds not only at…

A stochastic nonlinear electrical characteristic of graphene is reported. Abrupt current changes are observed from voltage sweeps between the source and drain with an on/off ratio up to 10^(3). It is found that graphene channel experience…

Graphene has extraordinary mechanical and electronic properties, making it a promising material for membrane based nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). Here, chemical-vapor-deposited graphene is transferred onto target substrates to…

We answer the question posed in the title above by considering theoretically the electron-electron interaction induced many-body effects in undoped (`intrinsic') and doped (`extrinsic') 2D graphene layers. We find that (1) intrinsic…

Graphene and other two-dimensional materials display remarkable optical properties, including a simple light transparency of $T \approx 1 - \pi \alpha$ for light in the visible region. Most theoretical rationalizations of this "universal"…

Graphene is the nature's thinnest elastic membrane, with exceptional mechanical and electrical properties. We report the direct observation and creation of one-dimensional (1D) and 2D periodic ripples in suspended graphene sheets, using…

Graphene is a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice. It was first obtained by exfoliation of graphite in 2004 and has since evolved into a thriving research topic because of its attractive mechanical, thermal,…

Using an enhanced optically heterodyned optical Kerr effect method and a theoretical description of the interactions between an optical beam, a single layer of graphene, and its substrate, we provide experimental answers to questions raised…

It has recently been demonstrated that difference frequency mixing (DFM) can generate surface plasmons in graphene [1]. Here, we present detailed calculations comparing the contributions to this effect from substrate and from graphene…

A non-perturbative model for graphene optical nonlinearity is developed for the study of ultrafast pulse propagation along a monolayer, as in the case of graphene-comprising nanophotonic integrated waveguides. This graphene `hot electron'…

The interaction of light with matter has triggered the interest of scientists for long time. The area of plasmonics emerges in this context through the interaction of light with valence electrons in metals. The random phase approximation in…

In scenarios where electrons are confined to a flat surface, such as graphene, quantizing electrodynamics reveals intriguing insights. We find that one of Maxwell's equations manifests as part of the Hamiltonian, leading to novel…

Straining graphene results in the appearance of a pseudo-magnetic field which alters its local electronic properties. Applying a pressure difference between the two sides of the membrane causes it to bend/bulge resulting in a resistance…

The paper studies oscillations of graphene plates under the hypothesis that deformations are much more than the thickness of plate. In this most realistic case the oscillations are described by the system of nonlinear partial differential…

The beginning of high interest in two-dimensional (2D) crystals is marked by the synthesis of graphene, which constitutes exemplary monolayer material. This is due to the multiple extraordinary properties of graphene, particularly in the…

Spectroscopic studies of electronic phenomena in graphene are reviewed. A variety of methods and techniques are surveyed, from quasiparticle spectroscopies (tunneling, photoemission) to methods probing density and current response (infrared…

Graphene is the first truly two-dimensional (2D) material, possessing a cone-like energy spectrum near the Fermi energy and treated as a gapless semiconductor. Its unique properties trigger researchers to find more applications of it, such…

We show that graphene possesses a strong nonlinear optical response in the form of multi-plasmon absorption, with exciting implications in classical and quantum nonlinear optics. Specifically, we predict that graphene nano-ribbons can be…

Graphene, the 2D form of carbon, has excellent mechanical, electrical and thermal properties and a variety of potential applications including NEMS, protective coatings, transparent electrodes in display devices and biological applications.…
