Transport property of inhomogeneous strained graphene

In analogy to real magnetic field, the pseudo-magnetic field (PMF) induced by inhomogeneous strain can also formthe Landau levels and edge states. In this paper, the transport properties of graphene under inhomogeneous strain arestudied. We find that the Landau levels have non-zero group velocity, and construct one-dimensional conducting channels.In addition, the edge states and the Landau level states in PMF are both fragile under disorder. We also confirm that thebackscattering of these states could be suppressed by applying a real magnetic filed (MF). Therefore, the transmissioncoefficient for each conducting channel can be manipulated by adjusting the MF strength, which indicates the applicationof switching devices.     

Disorder effects in topological states:Brief review of the recent developments

Disorder inevitably exists in realistic samples,manifesting itself in various exotic properties for the topological states.In this paper,we summarize and briefly review the work completed over the last few years,including our own,regarding recent developments in several topics about disorder effects in topological states.For weak disorder,the robustness of topological states is demonstrated,especially for both quantum spin Hall states with Z_2 = 1 and size induced nontrivial topological insulators with Z_2 = 0.For moderate disorder,by increasing the randomness of both the impurity distribution and the impurity induced potential,the topological insulator states can be created from normal metallic or insulating states.These phenomena and their mechanisms are summarized.For strong disorder,the disorder causes a metal-insulator transition.Due to their topological nature,the phase diagrams are much richer in topological state systems.Finally,the trends in these areas of disorder research are discussed.
