微波人工石墨烯边缘态的调控

Manipulation of edge states in microwave artificial graphene

Matthieu Bellec, Ulrich Kuhl, Gilles Montambaux, Fabrice Mortessagne

摘要:

边缘态是理解石墨烯纳米带输运性质的一个重要因素。我们实验研究了三个主要的边缘:锯齿形,胡须,扶手椅单轴应变下的边缘状态的存在和内部结构。实验是在人造微波石墨烯片上进行的,其中波函数是通过直接成像获得的。我们表明,单轴应变可以用来操纵的边缘状态:一个单一的参数控制它们的存在和它们的空间扩展到带。通过结合紧束缚的方法和拓扑参数,我们提供了一个准确的描述我们的实验结果。在两条边的交点处出现了一种新的零能态,即角点态。

英文摘要:

Edge states are one important ingredient to understand transport properties of graphene nanoribbons. We study experimentally the existence and the internal structure of edge states under uniaxial strain of the three main edges: zigzag, bearded, and armchair. The experiments are performed on artificial microwave graphene flakes, where the wavefunctions are obtained by direct imaging. We show that uniaxial strain can be used to manipulate the edge states: a single parameter controls their existence and their spatial extension into the ribbon. By combining tight-binding approach and topological arguments, we provide an accurate description of our experimental findings. A new type of zero-energy state appearing at the intersection of two edges, namely the corner state, is also observed and discussed.
