Welcome to our graphene website. We want to reach students and people interested in the physics of graphene and show them how the tight binding model can predict interesting properties of small devices.

In Motivation, find how the idea for nanopatterned graphene appeared for the first time at Georgia Tech in Dr. Walter de Heer's laboratory.

Check out the poster prepared in 2008 for Oklahoma research day with David Mutala and Matthew McLaughlin of Cameron University, OK, USA.

In the Simulations: Explore what happens when you pattern graphene in different shapes, then observe how the model calculates the energy and vectors that describe electrons on this atom-thick surface. This is work done with Renato Corahua in javascript at UTEC (Lima, Peru), based on the original programs from GT.
