Electronic properties of mesoscopic graphene structures: charge confinement and control of spin and charge transport

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

This brief review discusses electronic properties of mesoscopic graphene-based structures. These allow controlling the confinement and transport of charge and spin; thus, they are of interest not only for fundamental research, but also for applications. The graphene-related topics covered here are: edges, nanoribbons, quantum dots, pnpn-junctions, pnppnp-structures, and quantum barriers and waveguides. This review is partly intended as a short introduction to graphene mesoscopics.
