含pn结的石墨烯Corbino盘中的介观谷滤波器

Mesoscopic valley filter in graphene Corbino disk containing a p-n junction

Dominik Suszalski, Grzegorz Rut, Adam Rycerz

摘要:

Corbino几何结构允许人们在没有出现熟悉的霍尔棒几何结构的边缘状态的情况下研究电流沿着弹道石墨烯中的p-n界面的传播。利用角动量空间中的转移矩阵,我们发现,对于足够强的磁场,电流仅沿一个方向传播,该方向由磁场方向和界面取向决定,并且两个谷K和K '被相等地占据。空间各向异性的有效质量可以抑制由外部电场选择的谷电流之一,将系统转换成谷滤波器的介观版本。过滤机制可以在有效狄拉克理论中得到充分的理解,而不涉及原子尺度效应,这在对局部边缘态的建议中是重要的。

英文摘要:

The Corbino geometry allows one to investigate the propagation of electric current along a p-n interface in ballistic graphene in the absence of edge states appearing for the familiar Hall-bar geometry. Using the transfer matrix in the angular-momentum space we find that for sufficiently strong magnetic fields the current propagates only in one direction, determined by the magnetic field direction and the interface orientation, and the two valleys, K and K', are equally occupied. Spatially-anisotropic effective mass may suppress one of the valley currents, selected by the external electric field, transforming the system into a mesoscopic version of the valley filter. The filtering mechanism can be fully understood within the effective Dirac theory, without referring to atomic-scale effects which are significant in proposals operating on localized edge states.
