Using local scanning electrical techniques we study edge effects in side-gated Hall nanodevices made of epitaxial graphene. We demonstrate that lithographically defined edges of the graphene channel exhibit hole conduction within the narrow…

We demonstrate that the electronic gap of a graphene bilayer can be controlled externally by applying a gate bias. From the magneto-transport data (Shubnikov-de Haas measurements of the cyclotron mass), and using a tight binding model, we…

The transmission across a graphene bilayer region is calculated for two different types of connections to monolayer leads. A transfer matrix algorithm based on a tight binding model is developed to obtain the ballistic transmission beyond…

We study the properties of an electron on a catenoid surface. The catenoid is understood as a realization of a bridge connecting two graphene layer by a smooth surface. The curvature induces a symmetrical reflectionless potential well…

We theoretically show that an interlayer bias voltage in the AB-stacked bilayer graphene nanoribbons with armchair edges induces an electric polarization along the ribbon. Both tight-binding and ab initio calculations consistently indicate…

Bilayer graphene subjected to perpendicular magnetic and electric fields displays a subtle competition between different symmetry broken phases, resulting from an interplay between the internal spin and valley degrees of freedom. The…

We study the conductance of a biased bilayer graphene flake with monolayer nanoribbon contacts. We find that the transmission through the bilayer ribbon strongly depends on the applied bias between the two layers and on the relative…

Electronically gated bilayer graphene behaves as a tunable gap semiconductor under a uniform interlayer bias $V_{g}$. Imposing a spatially varying bias, which changes polarity from $-V_g$ to $+V_g$, leads to one dimensional (1D) chiral…

Gapless edge modes hosted by chirally-stacked trilayer graphene display unique features when a bulk gap is opened by applying an interlayer potential difference. We show that trilayer graphene with half-integer valley Hall conductivity…

This thesis studies how the rudimentary attributes of graphene's charge carriers, and local moments on its surface, can be directly manipulated and controlled with electrostatic potentials. We first consider bilayer graphene subject to a…

We study the existence of edge modes in gapped Moir\'e superlattices in graphene monolayer ribbons. We find that the superlattice bands acquire finite Chern numbers, which lead to a Valley Hall Effect. The presence of dispersive edge modes…

We consider plane junctions with graphene electrodes, which are formed by a single-level system ("molecule") placed between the edges of two single-layer graphene half planes. We calculate the edge Green functions of the electrodes and the…

We study the magnetic properties of graphene edges and graphene/graphane interfaces under the influence of electrostatic gates. For this, an effective low-energy theory for the edge states, which is derived from the Hubbard model of the…

The potential of graphene-based materials consisting of one or a few layers of graphite for integrated electronics originates from the large room-temperature carrier mobility in these systems (approx. 10,000 cm2/Vs). However, the…

We determine the optical properties of gated bilayer graphene quantum dots with trigonal warping (TW) of single-particle energy spectra. The lateral structure of metallic gates confines electrons and holes in a quantum dot (QD)…

Bilayer graphene encapsulated in tungsten diselenide can host a weak topological phase with pairs of helical edge states. The electrical tunability of this phase makes it an ideal platform to investigate unique topological effects at zero…

We investigate the electronic confinement in bilayer graphene by topological loops of different shapes. These loops are created by lateral gates acting via gap inversion on the two graphene sheets. For large-area loops the spectrum is well…

A charged particle whose energy is less than the electric potential step it is incident upon, is expected to undergo partial reflection and transmission. In bilayer graphene, however, a potential step in the form of an antisymmetric kink…

We study edge-states in graphene systems where a bulk energy gap is opened by inversion symmetry breaking. We find that the edge-bands dispersion can be controlled by potentials applied on the boundary with unit cell length scale. Under…

We investigate theoretically the interplay between the effects of a perpendicular electric field and incommensurability at the interface on the electronic properties of a heterostructure of bilayer graphene and a semiconducting substrate…
