Scattering theory and ground-state energy of Dirac fermions in graphene with two Coulomb impurities

We study the physics of Dirac fermions in a gapped graphene monolayer containing two Coulomb impurities. For the case of equal impurity charges, we discuss the ground-state energy using the linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) approach. For opposite charges of the Coulomb centers, an electric dipole potential results at large distances. We provide a nonperturbative analysis of the corresponding low-energy scattering problem

Particle transport in graphene nanoribbon driven by ultrashort pulses

We study charge transport in a graphene zigzag nanoribbon driven by an external time-periodic kicking potential. Using the exact solution of the time-dependent Dirac equation with a delta-kick potential acting in each period, we study the time evolution of the population transfer probability and the time-dependent optical conductivity. By variation of the kicking parameters, the conductivity becomes widely tunable
