▎ 摘  要

The low-energy magnetoelectronic structures of nanographene ribbons under a modulated magnetic field are investigated by the Peierls tight-binding model. They are dominated by the field strength, period, phase, the ribbon width, and edge structure. The modulated magnetic field could add state degeneracy, modify energy dispersions, alter subband spacings, affect carrier-density distributions, create additional band-edge states, and cause semiconductor-metal transitions. The main features of energy bands are directly reflected in density of states, such as the position, height, structure, and number of the prominent peaks. These results immensely differ from those in a uniform magnetic field. Significant differences between a 1D graphene ribbon and a 2D electron gas are also found.
