Magnetism in graphene nanoislands.
We study the magnetic properties of nanometer-sized graphene structures with triangular and hexagonal shapes terminated by zigzag edges. We discuss how the shape of the island, the imbalance in the number of atoms belonging to the two graphene sublattices, the existence of zero-energy states, and the total and local magnetic moment are intimately related. We consider electronic interactions bot...
متن کاملDefect-induced magnetism in graphene
We study from first principles the magnetism in graphene induced by single carbon atom defects. For two types of defects considered in our study, the hydrogen chemisorption defect and the vacancy defect, the itinerant magnetism due to the defect-induced extended states has been observed. Calculated magnetic moments are equal to 1 B per hydrogen chemisorption defect and 1.12–1.53 B per vacancy d...
متن کاملElectric-field control of magnetism in graphene quantum dots: Ab initio calculations.
Employing ab initio calculations we predict that the magnetic states of hydrogenated diamond-shaped zigzag graphene quantum dots (GQDs), each exhibiting unique electronic structure, can be selectively tuned with gate voltage, through Stark or hybridization electric-field modulation of the spatial distribution and energy of the spin-polarized molecular orbitals, leading to transitions between th...
متن کاملMagnetism and correlations in fractionally filled degenerate shells of graphene quantum dots.
We show that the ground state and magnetization of the macroscopically degenerate shell of electronic states in triangular gated graphene quantum dots depends on the filling fraction of the shell. The effect of degeneracy, finite size, and electron-electron interactions are treated nonperturbatively using a combination of density functional theory, tight-binding, Hartree-Fock and configuration ...
متن کاملQuantum Dots in Graphene
The paper reports on theoretical study of electron states for a quantum dot in a graphene monolayer. Discrete energy spectrum of quasiparticles inside the quantum dot is found. Energy levels and corresponding quasiparticle resonant wave functions are obtained, which allow calculating the local density of states inside the quantum dot. Some experimental results recently released are referred.
