چکیده

The perpendicular magnetic field dependence of the longitudinal resistance in trilayer graphene at various temperatures has been systematically studied. For a fixed magnetic field, the trilayer graphene displays an intrinsic semiconductor behavior over the temperature range of 5-340 K. This is attributed to the parabolic band structure of trilayer graphene, where the Coulomb scattering is a strong function of temperature. The dependence of resistance on the magnetic field can be explained by the splitting of Landau levels (LLs). Our results reveal that the energy gap in the trilayer graphene is thermally activated and increases with √B.

Quantum and classical confinement of resonant states in a trilayer graphene Fabry-Pérot interferometer.

The advent of few-layer graphene has given rise to a new family of two-dimensional systems with emergent electronic properties governed by relativistic quantum mechanics. The multiple carbon sublattices endow the electronic wavefunctions with pseudospin, a lattice analogue of the relativistic electron spin, whereas the multilayer structure leads to electric-field-effect tunable electronic bands...

Landau level spectrum of ABA- and ABC-stacked trilayer graphene

We study the Landau level spectrum of ABAand ABC-stacked trilayer graphene. We derive analytic lowenergy expressions for the spectrum, the validity of which is confirmed by comparison to a π -band tight-binding calculation of the density of states on the honeycomb lattice. We further study the effect of a perpendicular electric field on the spectrum, where a zero-energy plateau appears for ABC ...

Atomic and electronic structure of trilayer graphene/SiC(0001): Evidence of Strong Dependence on Stacking Sequence and charge transfer

The transport properties of few-layer graphene are the directly result of a peculiar band structure near the Dirac point. Here, for epitaxial graphene grown on SiC, we determine the effect of charge transfer from the SiC substrate on the local density of states (LDOS) of trilayer graphene using scaning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy and angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Diff...
