Adsorbed atoms and molecules play an important role in controlling and tuning the functional properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials. Understanding and predicting this process from theory is challenging because of the need to capture…
Large holes in graphene membranes were recently shown to heal, either at room temperature during a low energy STEM experiment, or by annealing at high temperatures. However, the details of the healing mechanism remain unclear. We carried…
Graphane is a quasi-two-dimensional material consisting of a single layer of fully hydrogenated graphene, with a C:H ratio of 1. We study nuclear quantum effects in the so-called chair-graphane by using path-integral molecular dynamics…
Intense efforts have been made in recent years to realize nonlinear optical interactions at the single-photon level. Much of this work has focused on achieving strong third-order nonlinearities, such as by using single atoms or other…
By merging bottom-up and top-down strategies we tailor graphene's electronic properties within nanometer accuracy, which opens up the possibility to design optical and plasmonic circuitries at will. In a first step, graphene electronic…
Hybrid Graphene/magnetic structures offer a unique playground for fundamental research, and opportunities for emerging technologies. Graphene-spaced ultrathin structures with antiferromagnetic exchange-coupling (AFC) seem a relevant…
Graphene has been studied in detail due to its mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. It is well documented that the introduction of dopants or defects in the lattice can be used to tune material properties for a specific…
Isotopic effects are relevant to understand several properties of solids, and have been thoroughly analyzed along the years. These effects may depend on the dimensionality of the considered solid. Here we assess their magnitude for…
The interaction between carbon nanostructures like quantum dots and radiation can generate different effects inside the nanomaterial, with the use of computational methods such effects can be predicted and optimize the material allowing a…
Graphene, a thinnest material in the world, can form moire structures on different substrates, including graphite, h-BN, or metal surfaces. In such systems the structure of graphene, i. e. its corrugation, as well as its electronic and…
We recently introduced a quantized fluctuational electrodynamics (QFED) formalism that provides a physically insightful definition of an effective position-dependent photon-number operator and the associated ladder operators. However, this…
This manuscript provides a general approach to the investigation of field quantization in high-curvature geometries. The models and calculations can help with understanding the elastic and inelastic scattering of photons and electrons in…
We demonstrate the high stability of simulated graphene hyperbolic pseudospheres under large externally imposed deformations and high temperature annealing. Hyperbolic pseudospheres are produced in a two-step Molecular Dynamics simulation…
In this work, a new structure is suggested for spasing. The presented spaser is made up of a graphene nanosphere, which supports localized surface plasmon modes, and a quantum dot array, acting as a gain medium. The gain medium is pumped by…
Graphene, being one-atom thick, is extremely sensitive to the presence of adsorbed atoms and molecules and, more generally, to defects such as vacancies, holes and/or substitutional dopants. This property, apart from being directly usable…
Graphene, the first truly two-dimensional (one atom thin) material, possesses strongly nonlinear electrodynamic and optical properties. At low (microwave, terahertz) frequencies this results from the unique electronic property of graphene -…
Plasmonics is a rapid growing field, which has enabled both fundamental science and inventions of various quantum optoelectronic devices. An accurate and efficient method to calculate the optical response of metallic structures with feature…
Interactions between localized plasmons in proximal nanostructures is a well-studied phenomenon. Here we explore plasmon plasmon interactions in connected extended systems. Such systems can now be easily produced using graphene.…
Graphene can at present be grown at large quantities only by the chemical vapor deposition method, which produces polycrystalline samples. Here, we describe a method for constructing realistic polycrystalline graphene samples for atomistic…
We propose a novel method to probe electronic excitations in graphene by monitoring the fluorescence quenching of a semiconductor quantum dot (or a dye molecule) due to the resonance energy transfer to the graphene sheet. We show how the…
