Journal Club: “Catching the bound states in the continuum of a phantom atom in graphene”

We explore theoretically the formation of bound states in the continuum (BICs) in graphene hosting two collinear adatoms situated on different sides of the JC-_loguinhosheet and at the center of the hexagonal cell, where a phantom atom of a fictitious lattice emulates the six carbons of the cell. We verify that in this configuration the local density of states near the Dirac points exhibits two characteristic features: (i) a cubic dependence on energy instead of a linear one for graphene as found in New J. Phys. 16, 013045 (2014), and (ii) the formation of BICs as the aftermath of a destructive Fano interference assisted by the Coulomb correlations in the adatoms. For the geometry in which adatoms are collinear to carbon atoms, we report an absence of BICs.
