This article reviews the basic theoretical aspects of graphene, a one-atom-thick allotrope of carbon, with unusual two-dimensional Dirac-like electronic excitations. The Dirac electrons can be controlled by application of external electric and magnetic fields, or by altering sample geometry and/or topology. The Dirac electrons behave in unusual ways in tunneling, confinement, and the integer quantum Hall effect. The electronic properties of graphene stacks are discussed and vary with stacking order and number of layers. Edge (surface) states in graphene depend on the edge termination (zigzag or armchair) and affect the physical properties of nanoribbons. Different types of disorder modify the Dirac equation leading to unusual spectroscopic and transport properties. The effects of electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions in single layer and multilayer graphene are also presented.

We report the measurement of the thermal conductivity of a suspended single-layer graphene. The room temperature values of the thermal conductivity in the range ∼(4.84 ± 0.44) × 103 to (5.30 ± 0.48) × 103 W/mK were extracted for a single-layer graphene from the dependence of the Raman G peak frequency on the excitation laser power and independently measured G peak temperature coefficient. The extremely high value of the thermal conductivity suggests that graphene can outperform carbon nanotubes in heat conduction. The superb thermal conduction property of graphene is beneficial for the proposed electronic applications and establishes graphene as an excellent material for thermal management.

Superior Thermal Conductivity of Single-Layer Graphene

Graphene has been attracting great interest because of its distinctive band structure and physical properties. Today, graphene is limited to small sizes because it is produced mostly by exfoliating graphite. We grew large-area graphene films of the order of centimeters on copper substrates by chemical vapor deposition using methane. The films are predominantly single-layer graphene, with a small percentage (less than 5%) of the area having few layers, and are continuous across copper surface steps and grain boundaries. The low solubility of carbon in copper appears to help make this growth process self-limiting. We also developed graphene film transfer processes to arbitrary substrates, and dual-gated field-effect transistors fabricated on silicon/silicon dioxide substrates showed electron mobilities as high as 4050 square centimeters per volt per second at room temperature.

Large-Area Synthesis of High-Quality and Uniform Graphene Films on Copper Foils

Optical transitions in a semiconductor quantum dot are theoretically investigated, with emphasis on the coupling to longitudinal optical phonons, and including excitonic effects. When limiting to a finite number of $m$ electron and $n$ hole levels in the dot, the model can be solved exactly within numerical accuracy. Crucial for this to work is the absence of dispersion of the phonons. A suitable orthogonalization procedure leaves only $m(m+1)/2+n(n+1)/2-2$ phonon modes to be coupled to the electronic system. We calculate the linear optical polarization following a delta pulse excitation, and by a subsequent Fourier transformation the resulting optical absorption. This strict result is compared with a frequently used approximation modeling the absorption as a convolution between spectral functions of electron and hole, which tends to overestimate the effect of the phonon coupling. Numerical results are given for two electron and three hole states in a quantum dot made from the polar material CdSe. Parameter values are chosen such that a quantum dot with a resonant sublevel distance can be compared with a nonresonant one.

Optical absorption in quantum dots: Coupling to longitudinal optical phonons treated exactly

We present a linear response calculation for twisted bilayer graphene. The calculation is performed for both the continuum and tight-binding models, with the aim of assessing the validity of the former. All qualitatively important features previously reported by us [Stauber et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 046801 (2018)] for the Drude matrix in the continuum model are also present in the tight-binding calculation, with increasing quantitative agreement for decreasing twist angle. These features include the chiral longitudinal magnetic moment associated with plasmonic modes, and the anomalous counterflow around the neutrality point, better interpreted as a paramagnetic response. We have addressed the differences between Drude and equilibrium response, and we showed that orbital paramagnetism is the equilibrium response to a parallel magnetic field over a substantial doping region around the neutrality point. Chirality also causes the equilibrium response to exhibit a nontrivial current structure associated with the nonvertical character of interlayer bonds in the tight-binding calculation.

Linear response of twisted bilayer graphene: Continuum versus tight-binding models

We discuss the dynamical current-current correlation function of the hexagonal lattice using a local current operator defined on a continuum-replica model of the original lattice model. In the Dirac approximation, the correlation function can be decomposed into a parallel and perpendicular contribution. We show that this is not possible for the hexagonal lattice even in the Dirac regime. A comparison between the analytical isotropic solution and the numerical results for the honeycomb lattice is given.

Dynamical current-current correlation of the hexagonal lattice and graphene

In hyperbolic two-dimensional (2D) materials, energy is channeled into their deep subwavelength polaritonic modes via four narrow beams. Here, we consider the launching of surface polaritons in hyperbolic 2D materials and demonstrate that efficient unidirectional excitation is possible with an elliptically polarized electric dipole, with the optimal choice of dipole ellipticity depending on the materials' optical constants. The selection rules afforded by the choice of dipole polarization allow turning off up to two beams, and even three if the dipole is placed close to an edge. This makes the dipole a directionally switchable beacon for the launching of subdiffractional polaritonic beams, a potential logical gate. We develop an analytical approximation of the excitation process which describes well the results of the numerical simulations and affords a simple physical interpretation.

Switchable and unidirectional plasmonic beacons in hyperbolic two-dimensional materials

We calculate the conductivity of a clean graphene sheet at finite temperatures starting from the tight-binding model. We obtain a finite value for the dc-conductivity at zero temperature. For finite temperature, the spontaneous electron-hole creation, responsible for the finite conductivity at zero temperature, is washed out and the dc-conductivity yields zero. Our results are in agreement with calculations based on the field-theoretical model for graphene.
