Saddle point anomaly of Landau levels in graphenelike structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Studying the tight binding model in an applied rational magnetic field (H) we show that graphene there are very unusual Landau levels situated immediate vicinity of saddle point (M-point) energy epsilon_M. around $\epsilon_M$ broadened into minibands (even relatively weak fields ~40-53 T) with maximal width reaching 0.4-0.5 separation between two neighboring though at all other energies is practically zero. In terms semiclassical approach a broad level or miniband epsilon_M manifestation so called self-intersecting orbit signifying abrupt transition from trajectories enclosing $\Gamma$ to K momentum space. Remarkably, virtually does not affect diamagnetic response graphene, which caused mostly by electron states Fermi \epsilon_F. Experimentally, effect broading can possibly be observed twisted where singularities brought close energy.

Electron fractionalization in two-dimensional graphenelike structures.
Electron fractionalization is intimately related to topology. In one-dimensional systems, fractionally charged states exist at domain walls between degenerate vacua. In two-dimensional systems, fractionalization exists in quantum Hall fluids, where time-reversal symmetry is broken by a large external magnetic field. Recently, there has been a tremendous effort in the search for examples of frac...
متن کاملCollapse of Landau levels in gated graphene structures.
We describe a new regime of magnetotransport in two-dimensional electron systems in the presence of a narrow potential barrier. In such systems, the Landau level states, which are confined to the barrier region in strong magnetic fields, undergo a deconfinement transition as the field is lowered. Transport measurements on a top-gated graphene device are presented. Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscill...
متن کاملSADDLE POINT VARIATIONAL METHOD FOR DIRAC CONFINEMENT
A saddle point variational (SPV ) method was applied to the Dirac equation as an example of a fully relativistic equation with both negative and positive energy solutions. The effect of the negative energy states was mitigated by maximizing the energy with respect to a relevant parameter while at the same time minimizing it with respect to another parameter in the wave function. The Cornell pot...
متن کاملDynamics of driven flow with exclusion in graphenelike structures.
We present a mean-field theory for the dynamics of driven flow with exclusion in graphenelike structures, and numerically check its predictions. We treat first a specific combination of bond transmissivity rates, where mean field predicts, and numerics to a large extent confirms, that the sublattice structure characteristic of honeycomb networks becomes irrelevant. Dynamics, in the various regi...
متن کاملDriven flow with exclusion and transport in graphenelike structures.
We study driven flow with exclusion in graphenelike structures. The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP), a well-known model in its strictly one-dimensional (chain) version, is generalized to cylinder (nanotube) and ribbon (nanoribbon) geometries. A mean-field theoretical description is given for very narrow ribbons ("necklaces") and nanotubes. For specific configurations of bond...
