石墨烯(graphene)的色散关系
石墨烯(graphene)作为近年来的研究热点,有很多优异的物理性质。利用紧束缚方法(Tight-binding approach)计算出的能量色散关系(energy dispersion relation)可以发现很多有趣的东西,同时对碳纳米管的研究也有一定的指导意义。

The values of Brillouin zone

A number of interesting and peculiar features emerge from this figure. First it is clear that the valence and the conduction bands touch each other at a number of finite momentum values. The momentum values at which the two bands touch are termed Dirac points (there are two in the Brillouin zone) and are represented by the momentum vectors K and K’. As a consequence, graphene’s spectrum does not have an energy gap. On the other hand, since the bands only touch at two momentum points the density of states is zero at the corresponding energy. Therefore, grapheme is sometimes termed a zero-gap semiconductor with vanishing density of states at the Fermi energy.(J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 21 (2009) 323201)
