With its electrically tunable light absorption and ultrafast photoresponse, graphene is a promising candidate for high-speed chip-integrated photonics. The generation mechanisms of photosignals in graphene photodetectors have been studied…

Matrix elements of electron-light interactions for armchair and zigzag graphene nanoribbons are constructed analytically using a tight-binding model. The changes in wavenumber ($\Delta n$) and pseudospin are the necessary elements if we are…

Ballistic electrons in phosphorene $pn$ junctions show optical-like phenomena. Phosphorene is modeled by a tight-binding Hamiltonian that describes its electronic structure at low energies, where the electrons behave in the zigzag direction…

Transport properties of 2D materials especially close to their boundary has received much attention after the successful fabrication of graphene and other fascinating materials afterwards. While most previous work is devoted to the…

Electroluminescence, a non-thermal radiative process, is ubiquitous in semi-conductors and insulators but fundamentally precluded in metals. We show here that this restriction can be circumvented in high-quality graphene. By investigating…

We investigate coherent electron dynamics in graphene, interacting with the electric field waveform of two orthogonally polarized, few-cycle laser pulses. Recently, we demonstrated that linearly polarized driving pulses lead to…

In the past decade graphene has been one of the most studied material for several unique and excellent properties. Due to its two dimensional nature, physical and chemical properties and ease of manipulation, graphene offers the possibility…

The theory of optical effects in hydrogenated graphene (graphane) in terahertz and infrared range is developed, including the analysis of complex conductivity, reflection coefficient for graphane on a substrate and dispersion of surface…

Plasmons --the collective oscillations of electrons in conducting materials-- play a pivotal role in nanophotonics because of their ability to couple electronic and photonic degrees of freedom. In particular, plasmons in graphene --the…

We study photodetection in graphene near a local electrostatic gate, which enables active control of the potential landscape and carrier polarity. We find that a strong photoresponse only appears when and where a p-n junction is formed,…

Spatial separation of electrons and holes in graphene gives rise to existence of plasmon waves confined to the boundary region. Theory of such guided plasmon modes within hydrodynamics of electron-hole liquid is developed. For plasmon…

Fast modulation and switching of light at visible and near-infrared (vis-NIR) frequencies is of utmost importance for optical signal processing and sensing technologies. No fundamental limit appears to prevent us from designing…

Graphene photonics has emerged as a promising platform for providing desirable optical functionality. However, graphene's monolayer-scale thickness fundamentally restricts the available light matter interaction, posing a critical design…

In this paper we propose a new paradigm to create superlenses inspired by n-p-n junctions of graphene. We show that by adjoining a n-type region and a p-type region with a crystal dislocation, it is possible to mimic the interaction of…

We give a concise account on the derivation of hybrid quantum-classical models for stationary electron transport in graphene, in presence of sharp potential steps of barriers. A quantum region (an asymptotically thin strip around the…

Studies of the structural, electronic, and optical characteristics of the interfaces between graphene and ZnO polar surfaces is carried out using first-principles simulations. At the interface, a strong van der Waals force is present, and…

For future on-chip communication schemes, it is essential to integrate nanoscale materials with an ultrafast optoelectronic functionality into high-frequency circuits. The atomically thin graphene has been widely demonstrated to be suitable…

Graphene has opened new avenues of research in quantum transport, with potential applications for coherent electronics. Coherent transport depends sensitively on scattering from microscopic disorder present in graphene samples: electron…

Nonlinear-optical refraction is typically described by means of perturbation theory near the material's equilibrium state. Graphene, however, can easily move far away from its equilibrium state upon optical pumping, yielding strong…

Graphene has been proposed for use in various nanodevice designs, many of which harness emergent quantum properties for device functionality. However, visualization, measurement, and manipulation become non-trivial at nanometer and atomic…
