Cutting a honeycomb lattice (HCL) can end up with three types of edges (zigzag, bearded and armchair), as is well known in the study of graphene edge states. Here we theoretically investigate and experimentally demonstrate a class of…

The honeycomb lattice in the cylinder geometry with zigzag edges, bearded edges, zigzag and bearded edges (zigzag-bearded), and armchair edges are studied. The tight-binding model with nearest-neighbor hoppings is used. Edge states are…

Properties of bulk and boundaries of materials can, in general, be quite different, both for topological and non-topological reasons. One of the simplest boundary problems to pose is the tight-binding problem of noninteracting electrons on…

It is known that zigzag graphene edge is able to support edge states: there is a non-dispersive single-electron band localized near the zigzag edge. However, it is generally believed that no edge states exist near the armchair edge. In this…

Systems that can be described with the same mathematical models that account for the properties of electrons in graphene are known as graphene-like systems. These include magnons, photons, polaritons, acoustic waves, and electrons in…

Generalized honeycomb-structured materials have received increasing attention due to their novel topological properties. In this article, we investigate zero-energy edge states in tight-binding models for such materials with two different…

We investigate the properties of magnon edge states in a ferromagnetic honeycomb lattice with armchair boundaries. In contrast with fermionic graphene, we find novel edge states due to the missing bonds along the boundary sites. After…

A generalization of the graphene honeycomb model to the case where each site in the honeycomb lattice contains a $n-$fold degenerate set of eigenstates of the $C_3$ symmetry has been recently proposed to describe several systems, including…

Boundary conditions for the two-dimensional fermions in ribbons of the hexagonal lattice are studied in the dice model whose energy spectrum in infinite system consists of three bands with one completely flat band of zero energy. Like in…

The edges of nanoscopic objects determine most of their properties. For this reason the edges of honeycomb carbon--always considered either zigzag- or armchair-like--need special attention. In this report we provide experimental evidence…

We study the edge states in graphene in the presence of a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the lattice. Most of the works done so far discuss the edge states in either zigzag or armchair edge graphene considering an isotropic…

With the help of transfer matrix method, the conditions for the existence of the edge states in the semi-infinite armchair edged graphene is given. We discuss zero-energy and non-zero-energy edge states separately, and show the nonexistence…

We investigate the fine structure of the edge states energy spectrum for zigzag and armchair ribbons of graphene in a strong magnetic field. At low energy, the spectra can be described by an effective Schrodinger Hamiltonian with a double…

By combining analytic and numerical methods, edge states on a finite width graphene ribbon in a magnetic field are studied in the framework of low-energy effective theory that takes into account the possibility of quantum Hall…

We prescribe general rules to predict the existence of edge states and zero-energy flat bands in graphene nanoribbons and graphene edges of arbitrary shape. No calculations are needed. For the so-called {\it{minimal}} edges, the projection…

We experimentally reveal the emergence of edge states in a photonic lattice with orbital bands. We use a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice of coupled micropillars whose bulk spectrum shows four gapless bands arising from the coupling of…

Motivated by recent experiments and a theoretical analysis of the gap equation for the propagator of Dirac quasiparticles, we assume that the physics underlying the recently observed removal of sublattice and spin degeneracies in graphene…

The flat band of edge states which occur in the simple tight-binding lattice model of graphene with a zig-zag edge have long been conjectured to take up a ferromagnetic configuration. In this work we demonstrate that, for a large class of…

Edge structure plays an essential role in the nature of electronic states in graphene nanoribbons. By focusing on the interplay between this feature and non-trivial topology in the domain of the Dirac confinement problem, this paper…

The present study explores the edge states in a finite-width graphene ribbon and a semi-infinite geometry subject to a perpendicular magnetic field and an in-plane electric field, applied perpendicular to a zigzag edge. To accomplish this,…
