Emerging Zero Modes for Graphene in a Periodic Potential

Open access
Brey, L., Fertig, H. A.·2009·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

We investigate the effect of a periodic potential on the electronic states and conductance of graphene. It is demonstrated that for a cosine potential V(x) = V_{0}cos(G_{0}x), new zero energy states emerge whenever J0(2V_{0}/variant Planck's over 2piv_{F}G_{0}) = 0. The phase of the wave functions of these states is shown to be related to periodic solutions of the equation of motion of an overdamped particle in a periodic potential, subject to a periodic force. Numerical solutions of the Dirac equation confirm the existence of these states, and demonstrate the chirality of states in their vicinity. Conductance resonances are shown to accompany the emergence of these induced Dirac points.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
