This approach accurately describes both the charge transfer between the adatom and graphene substrate and the long-range screening response of doped graphene to the Coulomb impurity. We show that 1.6 electrons are transferred from Ca to graphene, and analyze the effects of non-linearity, intraband and interband transitions and the exchange-correlation potential on the graphene response.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-09-14T16:04:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "doped graphene", "coulomb impurity", "calcium adatoms", "first-principles theory", "application" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
