摘要:

石墨烯中电子散射的特殊性质是对这种材料物理性质的许多令人兴奋的理论预测之一。为了研究电子在石墨烯平面内的散射特性,我们在单层石墨烯片内建立了一个门控可调势垒。我们报告的电传输测量整个结构的可调势垒电位是通过一系列的高度扫描。当势垒足够强以在石墨烯片内形成双极结(npn或pnp)时,跨越势垒的电阻急剧增加。我们将这些结果与扩散和弹道输运的预测进行比较,因为屏障在长度尺度上与平均自由程相当。最后,我们展示了磁场如何修改跨越屏障的输运。

英文摘要:

The peculiar nature of electron scattering in graphene is among many exciting theoretical predictions for the physical properties of this material. To investigate electron scattering properties in a graphene plane, we have created a gate-tunable potential barrier within a single-layer graphene sheet. We report measurements of electrical transport across this structure as the tunable barrier potential is swept through a range of heights. When the barrier is sufficiently strong to form a bipolar junctions (npn or pnp) within the graphene sheet, the resistance across the barrier sharply increases. We compare these results to predictions for both diffusive and ballistic transport, as the barrier rises on a length scale comparable to the mean free path. Finally, we show how a magnetic field modifies transport across the barrier.
