The valley degeneracy of electron states in graphene stimulates intensive research of valley-related optical and transport phenomena. While many proposals on how to manipulate valley states have been put forward, experimental access to the…

The one-loop polarization function of graphene has been calculated at zero temperature for arbitrary wavevector, frequency, chemical potential (doping), and band gap. The result is expressed in terms of elementary functions and is used to…

We study the interplay between a Kekul\'e patterned distortion in monolayer graphene and a monochromatic laser irradiation, focusing in the long wavelength approximation of its Landau level structure. Exploiting the symmetries of the…

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…

Two-dimensional quantum materials offer a robust platform for investigating the emergence of symmetry-broken ordered phases owing to the high tuneability of their electronic properties. For instance, the ability to create new electronic…

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…

In graphene, a Kekul\'e-Y bond texture modifies the electronic band structure generating two concentric Dirac cones with different Fermi velocities lying in the {\Gamma}-point in reciprocal space. The energy dispersion results in different…

The polarization of graphene is calculated exactly within the random phase approximation for arbitrary frequency, wave vector, and doping. At finite doping, the static susceptibility saturates to a constant value for low momenta. At $q=2…

In this Letter, both the manipulation of valley-polarized currents and the optical-like behaviors of Dirac fermions are theoretically explored in polycrystalline graphene. When strain is applied, the misorientation between two graphene…

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…

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…

In strained graphene, lattice deformation can create pseudo-magnetic fields and result in zero-field Landau level-like quantization. In the presence of an external magnetic field, valley-polarized Landau levels are predicted to be observed…

Valley polarization in graphene breaks inversion symmetry and therefore leads to second-harmonic generation. We present a complete theory of this effect within a single-particle approximation. It is shown that this may be a sensitive tool…

The formation of a superlattice in graphene can serve as a way to modify its electronic bandstructure and thus to engineer its electronic transport properties. Recent experiments have discovered a Kekul\'e bond ordering in graphene…

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…

We study graphene with an adsorbed spin texture, where the localized spins create a periodic magnetic flux. The latter produces gaps in the graphene spectrum and breaks the valley symmetry. The resulting effective electronic model, which is…

We theoretically consider the effect of plasmon collective modes on the frequency-dependent conductivity of graphene in the presence of the random static potential of charged impurities. We develop an equation of motion approach suitable…

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…

Measuring degeneracy and broken-symmetry states of a system at nanoscale requires extremely high energy and spatial resolution, which has so far eluded direct observation. Here, we realize measurement of the degeneracy and subtle…

Electrons in graphene have fourfold spin and valley degeneracies owing to the unique bipartite honeycomb lattice and an extremely weak spin-orbit coupling, which can support a series of broken symmetry states. Atomic-scale defects in…
