| Popis: | We consider the gapped graphene superlattice (SL) constructed in accordance with the Fibonacci rule. We propose to create the quasi-periodic modulation due to the difference in the values of the energy gap in different SL elements. It is shown that the effective splitting of the allowed bands and thereby forming a series of gaps is realized under the normal incidence of electrons on the SL as well as under oblique incidence. Energy spectra reveal periodical character on the whole energy scale.The splitting of allowed bands is subjected to the inflation Fibonacci rule.The gap associated with the new Dirac point is formed in every Fibonacci generation. The location of this gap is robust against the change in the SL period but at the same time it is sensitive to the ratio of barrier and well widths; also it is weakly dependent on values of the mass term in the Hamiltonian. Results otained allows for controlling the energetic spectra of the graphene-based superlattices and may be useful for operating of the nanoelectronic devices. |
