Pristine graphene has been considered one of the most promising materials because of its
excellent physical and chemical properties. However, various defects in graphene produced …

The concept of valley originates from two degenerate but nonequivalent energy bands at the
local minimum in the conduction band or local maximum in the valence band. Manipulating …

Despite much anticipation of valleytronics as a candidate to replace the aging
complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) based information processing, its …

We investigate the valley-coupled transport of Dirac electrons in graphene with a uniform Y-
shaped Kekulé lattice distortion, in which the original K and K′ valleys of the pristine …

We present an overview of the electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties of
polycrystalline graphene. Most global properties of this material, such as the charge mobility …

Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) has been employed to probe charge carriers in a
graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) heterostructure [Nano Lett. 21, 5013 (2021) …

We propose a realizable device design for an all-electrical robust valley filter that utilizes
spin protected topological interface states hosted on monolayer 2D-Xene materials with …

In this letter we study the valley degeneracy splitting of the transition-metal dichalcogenide
monolayer by first-principles calculations. The local magnetic moments are introduced into …

A valley filter capable of generating a valley-polarized current is a crucial element in
valleytronics, yet its implementation remains challenging. Here, we propose a valley filter …

In this paper, we theoretically investigate the manipulation of valley-polarized currents and
the optical-like behaviours of Dirac fermions in graphene with single line defect. After the …
