Terahertz magnetoplasmon energy concentration and splitting in Graphene PN Junctions
Abstract:
Terahertz plasmons and magnetoplasmons propagating along electrically and chemically doped graphene p-n junctions are investigated. It is shown that such junctions support non-reciprocal magnetoplasmonic modes which get concentrated at the middle of the junction in one direction and split away from the middle of the junction in the other direction under the application of an external static magnetic field. This phenomenon follows from the combined effects of circular birefringence and carrier density non-uniformity. It can be exploited for the realization of plasmonic isolators.

Schottky Barriers
Schottky barriers arise when a metal with a work function (Φm) contacts a semiconductor with a different work function (Φs). Initially, electrons transfer until the Fermi levels of the metal and semiconductor align at equilibrium. For instance, if Φm > Φs, the semiconductor Fermi level is higher than the metal's before contact. The...

Fermi Level Dynamics
Electron affinity in semiconductors refers to the energy gap between the minimum of its conduction band and the vacuum level and it is a critical parameter in determining how easily a semiconductor can accept additional electrons.
