The observation of large nonlocal resistances near the Dirac point in graphene has been related to a variety of intrinsic Hall effects, where the spin or valley degrees of freedom are controlled by symmetry breaking mechanisms. Engineering strong spin or valley Hall signals on scalable graphene devices could stimulate…

A tunable polarization-independent coherent perfect absorber (CPA) is proposed based on the metal-graphene hollowed-out cross array nanostructure at the mid-infrared region. By adjusting the phase difference between the incident beams, the coherent absorption at 9969nm is all-optically modulated from 99.97% to nearly…
