Electron pumping in graphene mechanical resonators.
The combination of high-frequency vibrations and metallic transport in graphene makes it a unique material for nanoelectromechanical devices. In this Letter, we show that graphene-based nanoelectromechanical devices are extremely well suited for charge pumping due to the sensitivity of its transport coefficients to perturbations in electrostatic potential and mechanical deformations, with the p...
متن کاملQuantum pumping in graphene
We show that graphene-based quantum pumps can tap into evanescent modes, which penetrate deeply into the device as a consequence of Klein tunneling. The evanescent modes dominate pumping at the Dirac point, and give rise to a universal response under weak driving for short and wide pumps, in close analogy to their role for the minimal conductivity in ballistic transport. In contrast, evanescent...
متن کاملSingle-parameter pumping in graphene
We propose a quantum pump mechanism based on the particular properties of graphene, namely chirality and bipolarity. The underlying physics is the excitation of evanescent modes entering a potential barrier from one lead, while those from the other lead do not reach the driving region. This induces a large nonequilibrium current with electrons stemming from a broad range of energies, in contras...
متن کاملGraphene-based spin-pumping transistor
We demonstrate with a fully quantum-mechanical approach that graphene can function as gate-controllable transistors for pumped spin currents, i.e., a stream of angular momentum induced by the precession of adjacent magnetizations, which exists in the absence of net charge currents. Furthermore, we propose as a proof of concept how these spin currents can be modulated by an electrostatic gate. B...
متن کاملMechanical quantum resonators
We describe the design for a solid-state quantum computational architecture based on the integration of GHz-frequency mechanical resonators with Josephson phase qubits, which have the potential for demonstrating a variety of singleand multi-qubit operations critical to quantum computation. The computational qubits are eigenstates of large-area, current-biased Josephson junctions. Two or more qu...
