Bond relaxation in the graphene layer, within the supermoire unit cell (top) and a schematic of the hBN/graphene/hBN heterostructure (bottom). In their recent paper published in Nano Letters ( "Double ...

Resonances are abundant when 2-D materials like graphene are used, which enhance photon tunneling. With the graphene-hBN heterostructure, for instance, hBN is a natural hyperbolic material and ...

For non-encapsulated hBN/bilayer graphene heterostructure, where hBN is present only at the bottom, the layer symmetry is broken due to the difference in the potential experienced by the two ...

The graphene and hBN structures displayed notable differences. At the highest defect density, graphene exhibited disordered structures with numerous non-hexagonal carbon rings (amorphization).
