Abstract

We examine the effect of a magnetic field that varies inversely as the square of distance on the Dirac fermion spectrum of graphene, a single layer of graphite. We find that unlike the case of the uniform magnetic field for which zero-energy modes exhibit half the degeneracy of the other levels in the energy spectrum, the ground state in this case, as well as the other energy levels, is doubly degenerate. We also get zero-energy solutions for the special case of ky = 0.
