摘要
Zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) p-n junctions display parity-dependent transport on the number of zigzag chains. We revisit this phenomenon using the mode-matching method and derive analytical solutions for the transmission probability. It is pointed out that the randomness of the interface tilting destroys the parity effect if the spread of the tilting parameter is larger than the lattice constant. We discuss the origin of the parity effect in connection with the lattice symmetry. Junctions with bearded ZGNRs are shown to strongly suppress electron transmission.
