This project investigates the unique properties of graphene, particularly focusing on controlling massless electrons for advanced electronic applications. It aims to develop new methods to manipulate charge, spin, and valley degrees of freedom, which could lead to breakthroughs in electronic device performance.
Conduction electrons in the carbon monolayer known as graphene have zero effective mass.
This property offers unique opportunities for fast electronics, if we can somehow learn to control the dynamics of particles which have a charge but no mass.
Fresh ideas are needed for this purpose, since an electric field is incapable of stopping a massless electron (its velocity being energy independent).The applicant and his group at the Lorentz Institute for Theoretical Physics in Leiden University have…
