摘要:

我们利用低能连续模型,研究了在具有矩形势垒的双层石墨烯(TBG)超晶格中电荷载流子的量子隧穿现象,包括其中存在缺陷的情况。通过数值分析传输概率,根据问题参数探讨了扭角、势垒数量、势垒几何形状以及超晶格内缺陷势垒的存在对传输的影响。我们的数值结果表明,传输对这些参数高度敏感:减小扭角会改变传输间隙和共振峰的数量、深度和位置。缺陷的存在影响传输,导致在传输间隙内出现隧穿态,其能量位置可通过势垒宽度调节。在低入射能情况下,正常入射电子的传输为完美或近完美,与扭角和势垒数量无关。然而,在高入射能情况下,传输变得明显各向异性,反映了由于扭角变化引起的狄拉克锥分离。缺陷的存在,特别是在较小扭角情况下,提供了额外的隧穿行为控制,允许在特定条件下完全抑制克莱因隧穿。这些发现扩展了对周期性石墨烯系统中 miniband 输运的已有理解,并为扭角可调的纳米电子和量子器件开辟了新可能。

英文摘要:

We investigate quantum tunneling of charge carriers through a periodic superlattice in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) with rectangular potential barriers, including the presence of a defect, using a low-energy continuum model. Transmission probabilities are numerically analyzed depending on the parameters of the problem, highlighting the roles of twist angle, number of barriers, barrier geometry, and the presence of a defect barrier within the superlattice. Our numerical results reveal that transmission is highly sensitive to these parameters: reducing the twist angle changes the number, depth, and position of transmission gaps and resonance peaks. The presence of defect affects the transmission, leading to the appearance of tunneling states inside transmission gaps with energy position can be tuned by the well width. At low incident energy, the transmission for normally incident electrons is perfect or nearly perfect, independent of the twist angle and the number of barriers. However, at large incident energy, the transmission becomes distinctly anisotropic, reflecting the separation of Dirac cones induced by twist angle variations. The presence of defects, particularly at smaller twist angles, provides additional control of tunneling behavior, allowing complete suppression of Klein tunneling under certain conditions. These findings extend the established understanding of miniband transport in periodic graphene systems and open new possibilities for twist-tunable nanoelectronic and quantum devices.
