Transport properties of hybrid single-bilayer graphene interfaces in magnetic field

We investigate the electronic properties of a hybrid system that comprises single-bilayer graphene structures subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field. Specifically, our focus is on the behavior exhibited by the zigzag boundaries of the junction, namely Zigzag-1 (ZZ1) and Zigzag-2 (ZZ2), using the continuum Dirac model for rigorous analysis. Our findings reveal a striking dependence of conductance on the width of the bilayer graphene at ZZ1, providing essential insights into the transport behavior of this boundary. Moreover, we observe a captivating phenomenon where the conductance at ZZ2 exhibits prominent maxima, demonstrating a robust correlation with the applied magnetic field. Additionally, our investigation uncovers the profound impact of interfaces on transmission probability, with ZZ1 being notably more affected compared to ZZ2. The variation of the Fermi energy further highlights the significant influence of magnetic field strength on the system's conductive properties, resulting in distinct conductance characteristics between the two regions. The combined results of ZZ1 and ZZ2 provide valuable insights into the system's transport properties. Notably, a clear exponential-like trend in conductance variation with the applied magnetic field underscores the system's strong sensitivity to magnetic changes.
