Electron pumping in graphene mechanical resonators
arXiv:1203.0348 · doi:10.1021/nl2038985
Abstract
The combination of high frequency vibrations and metallic transport in graphene makes it a unique material for nano-electromechanical devices. In this letter, we show that graphene-based nano-electromechanical devices are extremely well suited for charge pumping, due to the sensitivity of its transport coefficients to perturbations in electrostatic potential and mechanical deformations, with the potential for novel small scale devices with useful applications.
