Abstract
Lack of a bandgap is one of the significant challenges for application of graphene as the active element of an electronic device. A bandgap can be induced in bilayer graphene by application of a potential difference between the two layers. The simplest geometry for creating such a potential difference is two overlayed graphene nanoribbons independently contacted. Calculations, based on density functional theory and the nonequilibrium Green's function formalism, show that transmission through such a structure is a strong function of applied bias. The simulated current voltage characteristics mimic the characteristics of resonant tunneling diode featuring negative differential resistance. © 2011 American Institute of Physics.published_or_final_versio
