Electronic structure of bilayer graphene : a real-space Green’s function study
In this paper, a real-space analytical expression for the free Green’s function (propagator) of bilayer graphene is derived based on the effective-mass approximation. Green’s function displays highly spatial anisotropy with threefold rotational symmetry. The calculated...

description |
In this paper, a real-space analytical expression for the free Green’s function (propagator) of bilayer
graphene is derived based on the effective-mass approximation. Green’s function displays highly spatial anisotropy
with threefold rotational symmetry. The calculated local density of states (LDOS) of a perfect bilayer
graphene produces the main features of the observed scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images of graphite
at low bias voltage. Some predicted features of the LDOS can be verified by STM measurements. In addition,
we also calculate the LDOS of bilayer graphene with vacancies by using the multiple-scattering theory (scatterings
are localized around the vacancy of bilayer graphene). We observe that the interference patterns are
determined mainly by the intrinsic properties of the propagator and the symmetry of the vacancies. |
