Abstract
We investigate the effect of hydrogen dimers on the electronic structure of graphene. Using Greenʼs function and the T-matrix approach, we calculate the local density of states of graphene with single hydrogen dimer, as well as the quasiparticle spectral function of graphene with a finite concentration of randomly distributed hydrogen dimers. Our results show that the effect of dimer adsorption is dramatically different from that of monomer adsorption previously studied, and strongly depends on the configuration of the dimer. The features of the plotted spectral function of graphene are relevant to the band gap opening and the metal–insulator transition.
