In this article, we report the electronic band structures of hexagonal bilayer systems, specifically, rotated graphene-graphene and boron nitride-boron nitride bilayers, by introducing an angle between the layers and forming new periodic…
In general, there are two major factors affecting bandgaps in nanostructures: (i) the enhanced electron-electron interactions due to confinement and (ii) the modified self-energy of electrons due to the dielectric screening. While recent…
In semiconducting armchair graphene ribbons a chiral lattice deformation can induce pairs of topological gap states with opposite energies. Near the critical value of the deformation potential these kink and antikink states become almost…
A simple model based on the divide and conquer rule and tight-binding (TB) approximation is employed for studying the role of finite size effect on the electronic properties of elongated graphene nanoribbon (GNR) heterojunctions. In our…
We study the electronic structure of finite armchair graphene nanoribbons using density-functional theory and the Hubbard model, concentrating on the states localized at the zigzag termini. We show that the energy gaps between end-localized…
The electronic properties of graphene zig-zag nanoribbons with electrostatic potentials along the edges are investigated. Using the Dirac-fermion approach, we calculate the energy spectrum of an infinitely long nanoribbon of finite width…
Carbon-based nanostructures and graphene, in particular, evoke a lot of interest as new promising materials for nanoelectronics and spintronics. One of the most important issue in this context is the impact of external electrodes on…
The unusual electronic and optical properties of armchair and zigzag graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) subject to in-plane transverse electric and perpendicular magnetic fields have been systematically investigated. Our calculations were carried…
Graphene nanoribbon folds with single and double closed edges are studied using density functional theory methods. Van der Waals dispersive interactions are included via semi-empirical pairwise optimized potential. The geometrical phases of…
We propose two schemes of field-effect transistor based on gapped armchair graphene nanoribbons connected to metal leads, by introducing sidearms or on-site gate voltages. We make use of the band gap to reach excellent switch-off character.…
Bilayer graphene is normally a semimetal with parabolic dispersion, but a tunable bandgap up to few hundreds meV can be opened by breaking the symmetry between the layers through an external potential. Ab-initio calculations show that the…
We have used scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to resolve the spatial variation of the density of states of twisted graphene layers on top of a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite substrate. Owing to the twist a moire pattern…
Knowledge of the topology of the electronic ground state of materials has led to deep insights to novel phenomena such as the integer quantum Hall effect and fermion-number fractionalization, as well as other properties of matter. Joining…
Hydrogenation has proven to be an effective tool to open the bandgap of graphene. In the present density functional study we demonstrate that single-side-hydrogenated graphene is a semiconductor with an indirect bandgap of 1.89 eV, in…
Graphene nanoribbons are the flimsiest material systems in the world, and they get readily distorted. Distortion by twisting, for one, is important because it couples to ribbon's electronic properties. In this Letter, using simulations with…
Graphene two-dimensional nature combined with today lithography allows to achieve nanoelectronics devices smaller than the Dirac electrons wavelength. Here we show that in these graphene subwavelength nanodevices the electronic quantum…
We study the effect of a sharply localized magnetic field on the electron transport in a strip (ribbon) of graphene sheet, which allows to give results for the transmission and reflection probability through magnetic barriers. The magnetic…
This manuscript presents the general approach to the understanding of the connection between bonding mechanism and electronic structure of graphene on metals. To demonstrate its validity, two limiting cases of the "weakly" and "strongly"…
When using hexagonal boron-nitride (hBN) as a substrate for graphene, the resulting moir\'e pattern creates secondary Dirac points. By encapsulating a multilayer graphene within aligned hBN sheets the controlled moir\'e stacking may offer…
The Y-chart is a powerful tool for understanding the relationship between various views (behavioral, structural, physical) of a system, at different levels of abstraction, from high-level, architecture and circuits, to low-level, devices…
