Abstract: | We address theoretically the electronic transport through graphene quantum dots with the emphasis on the transmission phase. Analytical and numerical results are presented regarding the existence – or not – of a π lapse of the transmittance phase (and, consequentially, a Fano zero in the transmittance) at the charge neutrality point. A simple universal criterium is found, the phase lapses being always present if the contact sites belong to the same sub‐lattice. (© 2014 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &Co. KGaA, Weinheim) |
