The modulation of the transmitted (reflected) radiation due to change of interband transitions under variation of carriers concentration by the gate voltage is studied theoretically. The calculations were performed for strongly doped graphene on high-K (Al_2O_3, HfO_2, AlN, and ZrO_2) or SiO_2 substrates under normal propagation of radiation. We have obtained the modulation depth above 10% depending on wavelength, gate voltage (i.e. carriers concentration), and parameters of substrate. The graphene - dielectric substrate - doped Si (as gate) structures can be used as an effective electrooptical modulator of near-IR and mid-IR radiation for the cases of high-K and SiO_2 substrates, respectively.

We performed infrared transmission experiment on ion-gel gated graphene and measured carrier scattering rate g as function of carrier density n over wide range up to n=2E13 cm-2. The g exhibits a rapid decreases along with the gating followed by pers
istent increases on further carrier doping. This behavior of g(n) demonstrates that carrier is scattered dominantly by the two scattering mechanisms, namely, charged impurity (CI) scattering and short-range disorder (SR) scattering, with additional minor scattering from substrate phonon (SPP). We can determine the absolute strengths of all the scattering channels by fitting the g(n) data and unveils the complete n-dependent map of the scattering mechanisms g(n)=gCI(n)+gSR(n)+gSPP(n). The gCI(n) and gSR(n) are larger than those of SiO2$-gated graphene by 1.8 times, which elucidates the dual role of the ion-gel layer as a CI-scatterer and simultaneously a SR-scatterer to graphene. Additionally we show that freezing of IG at low-T (~200 K) does not cause any change to the carrier scattering.
Top-gated, few-layer graphene field-effect transistors (FETs) fabricated on thermally-decomposed semi-insulating 4H-SiC substrates are demonstrated. Physical vapor deposited SiO2 is used as the gate dielectric. A two-dimensional hexagonal arrangement
of carbon atoms with the correct lattice vectors, observed by high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy, confirms the formation of multiple graphene layers on top of the SiC substrates. The observation of n-type and p-type transition further verifies Dirac Fermions unique transport properties in graphene layers. The measured electron and hole mobility on these fabricated graphene FETs are as high as 5400 cm2/Vs and 4400 cm2/Vs respectively, which are much larger than the corresponding values from conventional SiC or silicon.
Full experimental control of local spin-charge interconversion is of primary interest for spintronics. Heterostructures combining graphene with a strongly spin-orbit coupled two-dimensional (2D) material enable such functionality by design. Electric
spin valve experiments have provided so far global information on such devices, while leaving the local interplay between symmetry breaking, charge flow across the heterointerface and aspects of topology unexplored. Here, we utilize magneto-optical Kerr microscopy to resolve the gate-tunable, local current-induced spin polarisation in graphene/WTe$_2$ van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures. It turns out that even for a nominal in-plane transport, substantial out-of-plane spin accumulation is induced by a corresponding out-of-plane current flow. We develop a theoretical model which explains the gate- and bias-dependent onset and spatial distribution of the massive Kerr signal on the basis of interlayer tunnelling, along with the reduced point group symmetry and inherent Berry curvature of the heterostructure. Our findings unravel the potential of 2D heterostructure engineering for harnessing topological phenomena for spintronics, and constitute an important further step toward electrical spin control on the nanoscale.
We discuss transport through double gated single and few layer graphene devices. This kind of device configuration has been used to investigate the modulation of the energy band structure through the application of an external perpendicular electric
field, a unique property of few layer graphene systems. Here we discuss technological details that are important for the fabrication of top gated structures, based on electron-gun evaporation of SiO$_2$. We perform a statistical study that demonstrates how --contrary to expectations-- the breakdown field of electron-gun evaporated thin SiO$_2$ films is comparable to that of thermally grown oxide layers. We find that a high breakdown field can be achieved in evaporated SiO$_2$ only if the oxide deposition is directly followed by the metallization of the top electrodes, without exposure to air of the SiO$_2$ layer.
We analyze the response of bilayer graphene to an external transverse electric field using a variational method. A previous attempt to do so in a recent paper by Falkovsky [Phys. Rev. B 80, 113413 (2009)] is shown to be flawed. Our calculation reaffi
rms the original results obtained by one of us [E. McCann, Phys. Rev. B 74, 161403(R) (2006)] by a different method. Finally, we generalize these original results to describe a dual-gated bilayer graphene device.
