▎ 摘　　要

We applied the scattering approach to studying the transport properties of charge carriers through single layer graphene in the presence of a time-periodic potential. Using the method, expressions for the second-quantized current operator, conductivity and shot noise are obtained. The results obtained in this study demonstrate that the applied external field provides sidebands for charge carriers to tunnel through the graphene, and these sidebands changed the transport properties of the system. The results obtained in this study might be of interest to basic understanding of photon-assisted tunneling (PAT) and designers of electron devices based on graphene. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
