Our latest paper “Controlling resonant tunneling in graphene via Fermi velocity engineering” has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Applied Physics.
In this work we show that it is possible to control the electronic transmission along a graphene sample with a periodic modulation in its Fermi velocity.
It has been done in collaboration with my colleague Prof. Claudionor G. Bezerra and his former postdoc, now a faculty member at Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco, Prof. Jonas R. F. Lima.
This is my first paper in the Journal of Applied Physics since 2010. It sure is nice to be back.
The paper is available here.
UPDATE: This paper has been featured on the cover of Volume 119 Number 24 of the Journal of Applied Physics.
