▎ 摘  要

We have investigated the electrical transport properties of Dirac electrons in a mono-layer graphene sheet in the presence of both electric and magnetic modulations. The effects of the modulations on quantum transport when they are in phase and out of phase are considered. We present the energy spectrum and the bandwidth of the Dirac electrons in the presence of both the modulations. We determine the sigma(yy) component of the magneto conductivity tensor for this system which is shown to exhibit Weiss oscillations. A symptotic expressions for sigma(yy) are also calculated to better illustrate the effects of in-phase and out-of-phase modulations. We find that the position of the oscillations in magnetoconductivity depends on the relative strength of the two modulations. When the two modulations are out of phase there is a complete suppression of Weiss oscillations for a particular relative strength of the modulations.
