▎ 摘 要
We investigated the electronic band structures and transport properties in asymmetric graphene superlattices (AGSLs). Their asymmetric distribution of potentials can induce extra Dirac points (DPs) that are absent in periodic and symmetric graphene superlattices. The emergence and location of the DPs in the k space can be manipulated by selecting the special structure of the AGSL. As a result, tunable perfect transmissions are obtained in the system. Moreover, the conductance and Fano factor present interesting oscillatory behaviors. These findings may be used for the design of graphene-based electronic devices.
