Localized waves in carbon nano-structures with connected and disconnected open waveguides

Authors:
Abstract:

A hexagonal lattice of quantum waveguides is considered with thickening or thinning of ligaments, which form open waveguides in the periodic nano-structure. Propagation of localized waves along the open connected and disconnected waveguides is studied and nodes in the lattice are indicated that support trapped modes with the exponential decay in all directions.
