摘要:

量子化学计算的动机,表明在石墨烯中的分子吸附发生在蜂窝晶格的优先网站,我们研究了孤立的杂质的影响上的局部电子性质的石墨烯单层,当杂质是位于一个网站,键,或中空状的位置。我们评估的局部态密度(LDOS)作为能量的函数上的杂质和它的邻近网站,以及在倒易空间中,在对应于一个束缚态的能量,在三种情况下的利益。后一项研究可能与解释傅里叶变换扫描隧道光谱的结果有关,因为它们显示了哪些状态主要导致LDOS的杂质诱导变化。我们还估计,半解析地,具有低能量的束缚态的杂质势的强度和宽度的条件的依赖性。然后利用这些结果来获得在稀杂质限制下的石墨烯中的准粒子寿命和静态电导率。特别是,我们恢复了次线性的载流子浓度的电导率的依赖性作为一个通用的杂质效应。

英文摘要:

Motivated by quantum chemistry calculations, showing that molecular adsorption in graphene takes place on preferential sites of the honeycomb lattice, we study the effect of an isolated impurity on the local electronic properties of a graphene monolayer, when the impurity is located on a site-like, bond-like, or hollow-like position. We evaluate the local density of states (LDOS) as a function of energy on the impurity and on its neighboring sites, as well as in reciprocal space, at an energy corresponding to a bound state, in the three cases of interest. The latter study may be relevant to interpret the results of Fourier transformed scanning tunneling spectroscopy, as they show which states mostly contribute to impurity-induced variations of the LDOS. We also estimate, semi-analytically, the dependence of the condition for having a low-energy bound state on the impurity potential strength and width. Such results are then exploited to obtain the quasiparticle lifetime and the static conductivity in graphene in the dilute impurity limit. In particular, we recover a sublinear dependence of the conductivity on the carrier concentration as a generic impurity effect.
