Regular conductance fluctuations indicative of quasi-ballistic transport in bilayer graphene.

چکیده
Quasi-periodic conductance fluctuations are observed in the low-temperature magneto-conductance of a bilayer graphene sample. The quasi-periodic nature of the fluctuations is confirmed by their Fourier power spectrum, which consists of just a small number of dominant frequency components. From an experimental study of these features, which are highly reminiscent of those reported previously for ballistic semiconductor quantum dots, we suggest that they are associated with the formation of an open quantum dot in the submicron graphene sample.

Previous studies of quantum chaotic scattering established a connection between classical dynamics and quantum transport properties: Integrable or mixed classical dynamics can lead to sharp conductance fluctuations but chaos is capable of smoothing out the conductance variations. Relativistic quantum transport through single-layer graphene systems, for which the quasiparticles are massless Dira...
متن کاملEdge effects in graphene nanostructures: II. Semiclassical theory of spectral fluctuations and quantum transport
We investigate the effect of different edge types on the statistical properties of both the energy spectrum of closed graphene billiards and the conductance of open graphene cavities in the semiclassical limit. To this end, we use the semiclassical Green’s function for ballistic graphene flakes that we have derived in Reference 1. First we study the spectral two point correlation function, or m...

متن کاملGate tuneable beamsplitter in ballistic graphene
We present a beam splitter in a suspended, ballistic, multiterminal, bilayer graphene device. By using local bottomgates, a p-n interface tilted with respect to the current direction can be formed. We show that the p-n interface acts as a semi-transparent mirror in the bipolar regime and that the reflectance and transmittance of the p-n interface can be tuned by the gate voltages. Moreover, by ...
