The low energy electronic band structure of bilayer graphene
We employ the tight binding model to describe the electronic band structure of bilayer graphene and we explain how the optical absorption coefficient of a bilayer is influenced by the presence and dispersion of the electronic bands, in contrast to the featureless absorption coefficient of monolayer graphene. We show that the effective low energy Hamiltonian is dominated by chiral quasiparticles...
متن کاملFabry-Pérot interference in gapped bilayer graphene with broken anti-Klein tunneling.
We report the experimental observation of Fabry-Pérot interference in the conductance of a gate-defined cavity in a dual-gated bilayer graphene device. The high quality of the bilayer graphene flake, combined with the device's electrical robustness provided by the encapsulation between two hexagonal boron nitride layers, allows us to observe ballistic phase-coherent transport through a 1-μm-lon...
متن کاملColective Electronic Properties of Gapped Bilayer Graphene
The unique mechanical and electronic properties of graphene, a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, make it a promising material for applications in a number of new technologies including ultra capacitors, photvoltaic cells, and sensors. Single layer graphene by itself is a gapless semiconductor, however when two layers of graphene are brought together to form A...
متن کاملTight- binding study of electronic band structure of anisotropic honeycomb lattice
The two-dimensional structure of graphene, consisting of an isotropic hexagonal lattice of carbon atoms, shows fascinating electronic properties, such as a gapless energy band and Dirac fermion behavior of electrons at fermi surface. Anisotropy can be induced in this structure by electrochemical pressure. In this article, by using tight-binding method, we review anisotropy effects in the elect...
متن کاملGraphene field-effect transistors with high on/off current ratio and large transport band gap at room temperature.
Graphene is considered to be a promising candidate for future nanoelectronics due to its exceptional electronic properties. Unfortunately, the graphene field-effect transistors (FETs) cannot be turned off effectively due to the absence of a band gap, leading to an on/off current ratio typically around 5 in top-gated graphene FETs. On the other hand, theoretical investigations and optical measur...
