The transport properties of electrons in graphene $p$-$n$ junction with uniform Kekul\'e lattice distortion have been studied using the tight-binding model and the Landauer-B\"uttiker formalism combined with the nonequilibrium Green's…
Graphene deposited on top of a Copper(111) substrate may develop a Y-shaped Kekul\'e bond texture (Kekul\'e-Y), locking the momentum of its Dirac fermions with its valley degree of freedom. As a consequence, the valley degeneracy of its…
Kekul\'e phases are Peierls-like lattice distortions in graphene that are predicted to host novel electronic states beyond graphene (1-8). Although the Kekul\'e phases are realized in graphene through introducing electron-electron…
Breaking the intrinsic chirality of quasiparticles in graphene enables the emergence of new and intriguing phases. One such paradigmatic example is the bond density wave, which leads to a Kekul\'{e}-ordered structure and underpins exotic…
A Kubo formalism is used to calculate the electronic and optical conductivity of a graphene superlattice with Y-shaped kekul\'e bond texture, similar to that visualized in recent experiments. We show that new conduction channels between the…
The deposition of a two-dimensional material on the surface of a three-dimensional crystal can generate superlattices with electronic properties modified through the proximity spin-orbit effect. In this study, we found that Kekul\'e…
Employing tight-binding model we investigate the effects of a uniform Y-shaped Kekule lattice distortion on the electronic spectrum and optical conductivity of graphene. We derive a low-energy effective Hamiltonian which is found to be in…
The effects of second-neighbor interactions in Kekule patterned graphene electronic properties are studied starting from a tight-binding Hamiltonian. Thereafter, a low-energy effective Hamiltonian is obtained by projecting the high energy…
Electromagnetic dressing by a high-frequency field drastically modifies the electronic transport properties on Dirac systems. Here its effects on the energy spectrum of graphene with two possible phases of Kekul\'e distortion (namely, Kek-Y…
Local curvature, or bending, of a graphene sheet is known to increase the chemical reactivity presenting an opportunity for templated chemical functionalization. Using first principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT)…
Graphene's electronic structure can be fundamentally altered when a substrate- or adatom-induced Kekul\'e superlattice couples the valley and isospin degrees of freedom. Here, we show that the band structure of Kekul\'e-textured graphene…
The joint effects of Kekul\'e lattice distortions and Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling on the electronic properties of graphene are explored. We modeled the position dependence of the Rashba energy term in a manner that allows its seamless…
A Kekul\'e bond texture in graphene modifies the electronic band structure by folding the Brillouin zone and bringing the two inequivalent Dirac points to the center. This can result, in the opening of a gap (Kek-O) or the locking of the…
We numerically investigate the electronic transport properties of graphene nanoribbons and carbon nanotubes with inter-valley coupling, e.g., in \sqrt{3}N \times \sqrt{3}N and 3N \times 3N superlattices. By taking the \sqrt{3} \times…
We present numerical studies of conduction in graphene nanoribbons with reconstructed edges based on the standard tight-binding model of the graphene and the extended Huckel model of the reconstructed defects. We performed atomic geometry…
We investigate the dynamical properties of quasiparticles in graphene superlattices with three typical Kekul\'{e} distortions (i.e., Kekul\'{e}-O, Kekul\'{e}-Y and Kekul\'{e}-M). On the one hand, we numerically show the visualized evolution…
Recent experiments by Guti\'errez $\textit{et al.}$ [Nature Phys. $\textbf{12}$, 950 (2016)] on a graphene-copper superlattice have revealed an unusual Kekul\'e bond texture in the honeycomb lattice --- a Y-shaped modulation of weak and…
The success of all-graphene electronics is severely hindered by the challenging realization and subsequent integration of semiconducting channels and metallic contacts. Here, we comprehensively investigate the electronic transport across…
Electronic structures of graphene sheet with different defective patterns are investigated, based on the first principles calculations. We find that defective patterns can tune the electronic structures of the graphene significantly.…
Graphene nanoribbons (GNR) in mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields are shown to exhibit dramatic changes in their band structure and electron transport properties. A strong electric field across the ribbon induces multiple…
