Graphene by Mikhail I. Katsnelson

By Mikhail I. Katsnelson

Graphene is the thinnest identified fabric, a sheet of carbon atoms prepared in hexagonal cells a unmarried atom thick, and but enhanced than diamond. It has most likely major functions in nanotechnology, 'beyond-silicon' electronics, solid-state recognition of high-energy phenomena and as a prototype membrane that may revolutionise gentle topic and 2nd physics. during this booklet, top graphene learn theorist Mikhail Katsnelson provides the elemental strategies of graphene physics. issues coated contain Berry section, topologically secure 0 modes, Klein tunneling, vacuum reconstruction close to supercritical fees, and deformation-induced gauge fields. The ebook additionally introduces the speculation of versatile membranes appropriate to graphene physics and discusses digital delivery, optical homes, magnetism and spintronics. ordinary undergraduate-level wisdom of quantum and statistical physics and reliable kingdom concept is thought. this is often an immense textbook for graduate scholars in nanoscience and nanotechnology and a very good creation for physicists and fabrics technological know-how researchers operating in similar areas.
