摘要: In this chapter, a theory is developed for calculating vertical tunneling current between two sheets of bilayer graphene separated by thin, insulating layer hexagonal boron nitride, neglecting many-body effects. Results are presented using physical parameters that enable comparison the with recently reported experimental results. The observed resonant and negative differential resistance in current–voltage characteristics explained terms electrostatically-induced band gap, gate voltage modulation, density states near edge, resonances upper sub-band. These observations compared to ones from similar heterostructures formed monolayer graphene.
