Graphene membranes and the Dirac-Born-Infeld action

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose the use of the Dirac-Born-Infeld action in the phenomenological description of graphene sheet dynamics and interactions. Both the electronic properties of the Dirac fermions and the overall dynamics can be incorporated into this model. Classical static configurations, as well as quantum fluctuations of the membrane degrees of freedom can be studied in this framework. This makes it an interesting tool for Casimir physics and novel QED processes.
