Graphene, a single-layer hexagonal lattice of carbon atoms, is a fascinating system for fundamental studies in condensed matter physics, as well as a promising candidate material for future applications in carbon-based nanoelectronics and molecular devices [1–4]. Since the honeycomb crystal structure of graphene consists of two nonequivalent sublattices, graphene has a unique band structure for the itinerant
-electrons near the Fermi energy. In particular, ...
