石墨烯纳米网:缺陷诱导的Dirac费米子在石墨烯基质上的存在

Graphene Nanomeshes: Existence of Defect-Induced Dirac Fermions on Graphene Host Matrix

Hasan Sahin, Salim Ciraci

摘要:

受石墨烯中制备高密度周期性纳米级缺陷的现有方法的启发,通过密度泛函理论中的第一性原理计算,研究了包含不同吸附原子和空穴形貌的缺陷图案化石墨烯纳米网的结构、力学和电子性质。研究发现,吸附原子团的各种模式都可以产生金属或半金属,甚至半导体的行为,特定的模式可以处于磁性状态。尽管单个吸附原子的模式显著改变了石墨烯的电子结构,但特定对称性的吸附原子群可以保持狄拉克费米子行为。还研究了形成纳米网的纳米孔。根据重复周期性和孔的几何形状之间的相互作用,纳米网可以处于不同的状态,从金属到半导体,包括半金属状态,带在费米能级线性交叉。我们表明,在石墨烯基质中形成周期性重复的超结构可以开发一种有前途的技术,以设计具有所需电子和磁性的纳米材料。

英文摘要:

Motivated by the state of the art method for fabricating high density periodic nanoscale defects in graphene, the structural, mechanical and electronic properties of defect-patterned graphene nanomeshes including diverse morphologies of adatoms and holes are investigated by means of first-principles calculations within density functional theory. It is found that various patterns of adatom groups yield metallic or semimetallic, even semiconducting behavior and specific patterns can be in a magnetic state. Even though the patterns of single adatoms dramatically alter the electronic structure of graphene, adatom groups of specific symmetry can maintain the Dirac fermion behavior. Nanoholes forming nanomesh are also investigated. Depending on the interplay between the repeat periodicity and the geometry of the hole, the nanomesh can be in different states ranging from metallic to semiconducting including semimetallic state with the bands crossing linearly at the Fermi level. We showed that forming periodically repeating superstructures in graphene matrix can develop a promising technique to engineer nanomaterials with desired electronic and magnetic properties.
