چکیده

We perform first-principles calculations to study the high-order harmonic generation induced in graphene nanostructures by the laser field. Three distinct signals are noticed: the integer higher-order harmonic generation (HHG), the shifted fractional order peaks from the integer order harmonics, and the intrinsic emissions. Due to the small gap between HOMO and LUMO of graphene molecule, the HHG can be generated for the infrared laser pulse with the photon energy ranging from 20 meV to ∼1 eV. The intrinsic emission corresponds to the electron excitation between eigenstates. Using a laser pulse with a photon energy of 0.042 eV and amplitude of 0.2 V/Å, HHGs up to 19th order are identified. Unsaturated graphene molecule is an excellent medium for HHG. Moreover, the HHG signals are very sensitive to the hydrogen passivation. Our results also indicate that HHG can be a promising method for detecting the product in the fabrication of graphene molecules.

Controlling the physicochemical state of carbon on graphene using focused electron-beam-induced deposition.

Focused electron-beam-induced deposition (FEBID) is a promising nanolithography technique using "direct-write" patterning by carbon line and dot deposits on graphene. Understanding interactions between deposited carbon molecules and graphene enables highly localized modification of graphene properties, which is foundational to the FEBID utility as a nanopatterning tool. In this study, we demons...

Graphene-Based Nanoresonator with Applications in Optical Transistor and Mass Sensing

Graphene has received significant attention due to its excellent properties currently. In this work, a nano-optomechanical system based on a doubly-clamped Z-shaped graphene nanoribbon (GNR) with an optical pump-probe scheme is proposed. We theoretically demonstrate the phenomenon of phonon-induced transparency and show an optical transistor in the system. In addition, the significantly enhance...

Laser-induced solid-phase doped graphene.

There have been numerous efforts to improve the performance of graphene-based electronic devices by chemical doping. Most studies have focused on gas-phase doping with chemical vapor deposition. However, that requires a complicated transfer process that causes undesired doping and defects by residual polymers. Here, we report a solid-phase synthesis of doped graphene by means of silicon carbide...

Laser induced white lighting of graphene foam

Laser induced white light emission was observed from porous graphene foam irradiated with a focused continuous wave beam of the infrared laser diode. It was found that the intensity of the emission increases exponentially with increasing laser power density, having a saturation level at ca. 1.5 W and being characterized by stable emission conditions. It was also observed that the white light em...

Effects of charge impurities and laser energy on Raman spectra of graphene.

The position and width of the Raman G-line was analyzed for unintentionally doped single-layered graphene samples. Results indicate a significant heating of the monolayer by the laser beam. Moreover, a weak additional component was resolved in the G-band. The position of the line is independent of the level of doping of the sample. We conclude that this new component is due to the phonons coupl...
