Charge density wave in graphene: magnetic-field-induced Peierls instability | Jean-Noël Fuchs
; Pascal Lederer
; | Date: |
15 Dec 2006 | Subject: | Other | Abstract: | We suggest that a magnetic-field-induced Peierls instability accounts for the recent experiment of Zhang et al. in which unexpected quantum Hall plateaus were observed at high magnetic fields in graphene on a substrate. This Peierls instability leads to an out-of-plane lattice distortion resulting in a charge density wave (CDW) on sublattices A and B of the graphene honeycomb lattice. We also discuss alternative microscopic scenarios proposed in the literature and leading to a similar CDW ground state in graphene. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0612386 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
