Impurity-induced spin-orbit coupling in graphene.
We study the effect of impurities in inducing spin-orbit coupling in graphene. We show that the sp3 distortion induced by an impurity can lead to a large increase in the spin-orbit coupling with a value comparable to the one found in diamond and other zinc-blende semiconductors. The spin-flip scattering produced by the impurity leads to spin scattering lengths of the order found in recent exper...
متن کاملHydrogenic Impurity in Ridge Quantum Wire
The binding energies as well as wave functions of hydrogenic impurities located in V-groove GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs quantum wires are calculated for different positions of the impurity inside the wires. The variational method is used and the carrier ground states are analytically calculated by an effective potential scheme together with a suitable coordinate transformation that allows the decoupling of...
متن کاملCoulomb impurity in graphene
We consider the problem of screening of an electrically charged impurity in a clean graphene sheet. When electron-electron interactions are neglected, the screening charge has a sign opposite to that of the impurity, and is localized near the impurity. Interactions between electrons smear out the induced charge density to give a largedistance tail that follows approximately, but not exactly, an...
متن کاملImpurity-assisted tunneling in graphene
The electric conductance of a strip of undoped graphene increases in the presence of a disorder potential, which is smooth on atomic scales. The phenomenon is attributed to impurityassisted resonant tunneling of massless Dirac fermions. Employing the transfer matrix approach we demonstrate the resonant character of the conductivity enhancement in the presence of a single impurity. We also calcu...
متن کاملCoulomb impurity problem in graphene.
We address the problem of an unscreened Coulomb charge in graphene and calculate the local density of states and displaced charge as a function of energy and distance from the impurity. This is done nonperturbatively in two different ways: (1) solving the problem exactly by studying numerically the tight-binding model on the lattice and (2) using the continuum description in terms of the 2D Dir...
