Peter Rakyta, Andor Kormanyos, Jozsef Cserti, Pekka Koskinen

摘要:

从理论上研究了石墨烯纳米带中的相干电子聚焦。使用半经典和数值紧束缚计算,我们表明,完美的扶手椅边缘引起的聚焦光谱中的等距峰。在低磁场下的锯齿形边缘的情况下,也可以观察到聚焦峰,但是随着磁场的增加,在光谱中出现更复杂的干涉结构。即使锯齿形边缘经历结构重建,也可以观察到光谱中的这种差异。因此,横向电子聚焦可以帮助识别和表征石墨烯样品的边缘结构。

英文摘要:

We study theoretically the coherent electron focusing in graphene nanoribbons. Using semiclassical and numerical tight binding calculations we show that perfect armchair edges give rise to equidistant peaks in the focusing spectrum. In the case of zigzag edges at low magnetic fields one can also observe focusing peaks but with increasing magnetic field a more complex interference structure emerges in the spectrum. This difference in the spectra can be observed even if the zigzag edge undergoes structural reconstruction. Therefore transverse electron focusing can help in the identification and characterisation of the edge structure of graphene samples.
