Electric dipole induced universality for Dirac fermions in graphene

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study electric dipole effects for massive Dirac fermions in graphene and related materials. The dipole potential accomodates towers of infinitely many bound states exhibiting a universal Efimov-like scaling hierarchy. The dipole moment determines the number of towers, but there is always at least one tower. The corresponding eigenstates show a characteristic angular asymmetry, observable in tunnel spectroscopy. However, charge transport properties inferred from scattering states are highly isotropic.
