Electrostatics of metal-graphene interfaces: sharp p-n junctions for electron-optical applications

Ferney A. Chaves, David Jimenez, Jaime E. Santos +2

Creation of sharp lateral p-n junctions in graphene devices, with transition widths well below the Fermi wavelength of graphene charge carriers, is vital to study and exploit these…

Fresnel polarisation of infra-red radiation by elemental bismuth

Bruno S. C. Alexandre, Luís C. Martins, Jaime E. Santos +2

We revisit the classical problem of electromagnetic wave refraction from a lossless dielectric to a lossy conductor, where both media are considered to be non-magnetic, linear, iso…

Renormalization of nanoparticle polarizability in the vicinity of a graphene-covered interface

Jaime E. Santos, M. I. Vasilevskiy, N. M. R. Peres +2

We study the electromagnetic properties of a metamaterial consisting of polarizable (nano)particles and a single graphene sheet placed at the interface between two dielectrics. We…

Optical bistability of graphene in the terahertz range

N. M. R. Peres, Yu. V. Bludov, Jaime E. Santos +2

We use an exact solution of the relaxation-time Boltzmann equation in a uniform AC electric field to describe the nonlinear optical response of graphene in the terahertz (THz). The…

Strong light-matter interaction in systems described by a modified Dirac equation

N. M. R. Peres, Jaime E. Santos

The bulk states of some materials, such as topological insulators, are described by a modified Dirac equation. Such systems may have trivial and non-trivial phases. In this paper,…

Thermodynamics of a Potts-like model for a reconstructed zigzag edge in graphene nanoribbons

J. N. B. Rodrigues, P. A. D. Gonçalves, Jaime E. Santos +1

We construct a three-color Potts-like model for the graphene zigzag edge reconstructed with Stone-Wales carbon rings, in order to study its thermal equilibrium properties. We consi…
