Pseudomagnetic Fields in a Locally Strained Graphene Drumhead

August 25, 2014
Author(s)
Shuze Zhu, Yinjun Huang, Nikolai Klimov, David B. Newell, Nikolai Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio, Santiago D. Solares Rivera, Teng Li
Recent experiments reveal that a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) probe tip can generate a highly localized strain field in a graphene drumhead, which in turn leads to pseudomagnetic fields in the graphene that can spatially confine graphene charge

Electro-Mechanical Properties of Graphene Drumheads

June 22, 2012
Author(s)
Nikolai N. Klimov, Suyong S. Jung, Shuze Zhu, Teng Li, C. Alan Wright, Santiago Solares, David B. Newell, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
The electro-mechanical properties of a suspended graphene layer are determined by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) measurements and computational simulations of the graphene membrane mechanics and morphology. The graphene membrane

Characteristics of Graphene for Quantized Hall Effect Measurements

June 1, 2012
Author(s)
Randolph E. Elmquist, Mariano A. Real, Irene G. Calizo, Brian G. Bush, Tian T. Shen, Nikolai N. Klimov, David B. Newell, Angela R. Hight Walker, Randall M. Feenstra
This paper describes concepts and measurement techniques necessary for characterization of graphene in the development of graphene-based quantized Hall effect (QHE) devices and resistance standards. We briefly contrast the properties of graphene produced

Mechanism for puddle formation in graphene

December 5, 2011
Author(s)
Shaffique Adam, Suyong S. Jung, Nikolai N. Klimov, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio, Mark D. Stiles
Close to charge neutrality, graphene's energy landscape is highly inhomogeneous, forming a sea of electron-like and hole-like puddles that determine the properties of graphene at low carrier density. However, the details of puddle formation have remained

Microscopic Polarization in the Bilayer Graphene

April 24, 2011
Author(s)
Joseph A. Stroscio, Suyong S. Jung, Nikolai N. Klimov, David B. Newell, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Gregory Rutter
Bilayer graphene has drawn significant attention due to the opening of a band gap in its low energy electronic spectrum, which offers a route to electronic applications that is not practical with single layer graphene. The gap can be either tunable through

Evolution of Microscopic Localization in Graphene in a Magnetic Field: From Scattering Resonances to Quantum Dots.

January 9, 2011
Author(s)
Suyong S. Jung, Gregory M. Rutter, Nikolai Klimov, David B. Newell, Irene G. Calizo, Angela R. Hight Walker, Nikolai Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
Graphene is a unique material displaying high-mobility transport in monolayer-thin films. However, its properties are strongly dependent on interactions with substrates, local charges and environment. Scanned probe microscopies can be used to locally probe
