Abstract:
In this paper relativistic Landau levels on a carbon pseudosphere, whose curvature is a negative constant K = -R -2, are investigated analytically in the presence of orthogonal electric and magnetic fields. It has been shown that the magnetic field tends to create bound states while the electric field tends to destroy them. Consequently there exists a critical electric field such that beyond this critical field the Landau levels collapse although negative curvature of the pseudosphere acts towards preventing the collapse of Landau levels at the critical value.

In the new picture, imagine that the first charge sets up an electric field independent of all other charges in the universe. When another charge comes in its vicinity, the second charge experiences an electric force depending on the electric field at that point. The source charge does not...
