摘要:

利用紧束缚模型,我们研究了石墨烯中的线缺陷,其中体能隙通过亚晶格对称性破缺而打开。结果表明,亚晶格对称性破缺可以诱导出对应于不同能带谱的多种组态。特别地,对于相对于线缺陷保持镜像对称的配置,观察到无间隙状态。我们发现,这种无间隙状态起源于线缺陷,并且与石墨烯带的宽度、线缺陷的位置以及带边缘的电势无关。特别地,无间隙状态可以由嵌入线缺陷下方的栅极电压控制。最后,这一结果得到了电导计算的支持。这项研究显示了如何使用线缺陷来构造量子信道,以及如何通过调节嵌入线缺陷下方的栅极电压来控制量子信道。

英文摘要:

Using a tight-binding model, we study a line defect in graphene where a bulk energy gap is opened by sublattice symmetry breaking. It is found that sublattice symmetry breaking may induce many configurations that correspond to different band spectra. In particular, a gapless state is observed for a configuration which hold a mirror symmetry with respect to the line defect. We find that this gapless state originates from the line defect and is independent of the width of the graphene ribbon, the location of the line defect, and the potentials in the edges of the ribbon. In particular, the gapless state can be controlled by the gate voltage embedded below the line defect. Finally, this result is supported with conductance calculations. This study shows how a quantum channel could be constructed using a line defect, and how the quantum channel can be controlled by tuning the gate voltage embedded below the line defect.
