The electronic energy gap and total dipole moment of chemically functionalized hexagonal and triangular graphene quantum dots are investigated by the density functional theory. It has been found that the energy gap can be efficiently tuned…

In the presence of axial magnetic fields that can be realized in deliberately buckled monolayer graphene, quasi-relativistic Dirac fermions may find themselves in a variety of broken symmetry phases even for weak interactions. Through a…

Using ab-initio methods we investigate the possibility of three-terminal graphene "T-junction" devices and show that these all-graphene edge contacts are energetically feasible when the 1D interface itself is free from foreign atoms. We…

We investigate topological properties of models that describe graphene on realistic substrates which induce proximity spin-orbit coupling in graphene. A $\mathbb{Z}_2$ phase diagram is calculated for the parameter space of (generally…

This study theoretically investigated the magnetic properties and electronic structure of a graphene-based nano-spin-valve-like structure. Magnetic nickel layers on both sides of the graphene were considered. A spin-polarized…

Various types of topological defects in graphene are considered in the framework of the continuum model for long-wavelength electronic excitations, which is based on the Dirac--Weyl equation. The condition for the electronic wave function…

Isolated flat bands with significantly quenched kinetic energy of electrons could give rise to exotic strongly correlated states from electron-electron interactions. More intriguingly, the interplay between topology and flat bands can…

Undoped graphene in a strong, tilted magnetic field exhibits a radical change in conduction upon changing the tilt-angle, which can be attributed to a quantum phase transition from a canted antiferromagnetic (CAF) to a ferromagnetic (FM)…

We theoretically investigate the stability and transport properties of topological interface states (IFs) in 9-7-9 and 15-13-15 armchair graphene nanoribbon heterostructures (AGNRHs) laterally embedded in boron nitride (BN) sheets. Two…

Using first principles calculations, we studied a new class of graphdiyne nanoribbons (GDYNR) with open hexagonal rings on the edges.To avoid the effects from dangling bond, hydrogen or oxygen atoms were absorbed on the edges. There are two…

Twisted two-dimensional structures open new possibilities in band structure engineering. At magic twist angles, flat bands emerge, which give a new drive to the field of strongly correlated physics. In twisted double bilayer graphene dual…

Nodal noncentrosymmetric superconductors have topologically nontrivial properties manifested by protected zero-energy surface states. Specifically, it was recently found that zero-energy surface flat bands of topological origin appear at…

Topological insulators(1-8) are a novel form of matter which features metallic surface states with quasirelativistic dispersion similar to graphene(9). Unlike graphene, the locking of spin and momentum and the protection by time-reversal…

Tailor-made graphene nanostructures can exhibit symmetry-protected topological boundary states that host localized spin-$1/2$ moments. However, one frequently observes charge transfer on coinage metal substrates, which results in spinless…

One of the hallmarks of topological insulators is the correspondence between the value of its bulk topological invariant and the number of topologically protected edge modes observed in a finite-sized sample. This bulk-boundary…

Although it was demonstrated that discrete molecular levels determine the sign and magnitude of the thermoelectric effect in single-molecule junctions, full electrostatic control of these levels has not been achieved to date. Here, we show…

We explore Andreev states at the interface of graphene and a superconductor for a uniform pseudo-magnetic field. Near the zeroth-pseudo Landau level, we find a topological transition as a function of applied Zeeman field, at which a gapless…

Manipulation of intrinsic magnetic and electronic structures of graphene nanoflakes is of technological importance. Here we carry out systematic study of the magnetic and electronic phases, and its manipulation in graphene nanoflakes…

Motivated by the abundance of symmetry breaking states in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene and other two-dimensional materials, we study superconducting (SC) and charge orders in two-dimensional topological flat bands in the strong…

In the recent advancement in graphene heterostructures, it is possible to create a double layer tunnel decoupled graphene system that has a strong interlayer electronic interaction. In this work, we restrict the parameters in the low energy…
