Optical Trapping of Electrons in Graphene [PDF]

open access: yesACS Photonics, 2018
We propose an experimentally friendly scheme for trapping quasi- relativistic elec- trons in graphene by an electromagnetic beam with circular polarization and spatially inhomogeneous profile with an intensity dip. The trapping is achieved due to the ef- fect of bandgap opening outside the trapping region.
