Bilayer graphene dual-gate nanodevice: An ab initio simulation
arXiv:1109.6929 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.84.113412
Abstract
We study the electronic transport properties of a dual-gated bilayer graphene nanodevice via first principles calculations. We investigate the electric current as a function of gate length and temperature. Under the action of an external electrical field we show that even for gate lengths up 100 Ang., a non zero current is exhibited. The results can be explained by the presence of a tunneling regime due the remanescent states in the gap. We also discuss the conditions to reach the charge neutrality point in a system free of defects and extrinsic carrier doping.
