چکیده

We investigate the superfluid properties of disordered double layer graphene systems using the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism. The complexity of such a structure makes it imperative to study the effects of lattice vacancies which will inevitably arise during fabrication. We present and compare room temperature performance characteristics for both ideal and disordered double layer graphene systems in an effort to illustrate the behavior of a Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of lattice defects under non-equilibrium conditions. We find that lattice vacancies spread throughout the top layer past the coherence length have a reduced effect compared to the ideal case. However, vacancies concentrated near the metal contacts within the coherence length significantly alter the interlayer superfluid transport properties.

Non-equilibrium Green’s Function Study of Transport in Disordered Double-layer Graphene Systems by Brian Jon Dellabetta Thesis

The superfluid properties of disordered double-layer graphene systems are investigated using the non-equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) formalism. The complexity of such a structure makes it imperative to study the effects of lattice vacancies which will inevitably arise during fabrication. Room-temperature performance characteristics for both ideal and disordered bilayer graphene systems are ...

Excitonic superfluid phase in Double Bilayer Graphene

Spatially indirect excitons can be created when an electron and a hole, confined to separate layers of a double quantum well system, bind to form a composite Boson[1, 2]. Because there is no recombination pathway such excitons are long lived making them accessible to transport studies. Moreover, the ability to independently tune both the intralayer charge density and interlayer electron-hole se...

Interlayer excitonic superfluidity in graphene

We discuss the conditions under which the predicted (but not yet observed) zero-field inter-layer excitonic condensation in double layer graphene has a critical temperature high enough to allow detection. Crucially, disorder arising from charged impurities and corrugation in the lattice structure—invariably present in all real samples—affects the formation of the condensate via the induced char...

Thermal vibration analysis of double-layer graphene embedded in elastic medium based on nonlocal continuum mechanics

This paper presents the thermal vibration analysis of double-layer graphene sheet embedded in polymer elastic medium, using the plate theory and nonlocal continuum mechanics for small scale effects. The graphene is modeled based on continuum plate theory and the axial stress caused by the thermal effects is also considered. Nonlocal governing equations of motion for this double-layer graphene s...
