Graphene based superconducting quantum point contacts
We investigate the Josephson effect in the graphene nanoribbons of length L smaller than the superconducting coherence length and an arbitrary width W . We find that in contrast to an ordinary superconducting quantum point contact (SQPC) the critical supercurrent Ic is not quantized for the nanoribbons with smooth and armchair edges. For a low concentration of the carriers Ic decreases monotoni...
متن کاملDoping graphene with metal contacts.
Making devices with graphene necessarily involves making contacts with metals. We use density functional theory to study how graphene is doped by adsorption on metal substrates and find that weak bonding on Al, Ag, Cu, Au, and Pt, while preserving its unique electronic structure, can still shift the Fermi level with respect to the conical point by approximately 0.5 eV. At equilibrium separation...

متن کاملLocalized plasmons in point contacts
Using a hydrodynamic model of the electron fluid in a point contact geometry we show that localized plasmons are likely to exist near the constriction. We attempt to relate these plasmons with the recent experimental observation of deviations of the quantum point contact conductance from ideal integer quantization. As a function of temperature this deviation exhibits an activated behavior, exp(...
متن کاملProperties of Metal-Graphene Contacts
We present a study on the metal–graphene contact properties. Utilizing a dual-gate field-effect transistor device, an energetic separation between the Fermi level and the Dirac point in the contact areas can be adjusted deliberately by applying an appropriate front-gate voltage that acts only on the channel. This front-gate voltage is compensated by an opposite large-area backgate voltage, ther...
