Solitons in graphene
Abstract
In this paper we demonstrate the direct evidence of solitons in graphene by means of molecular dynamics simulations and mathematical analysis. It shows various solitons emerge in the graphene flakes with two different chiralities by cooling procedures. They are in-plane longitudinal and transverse solitons. Their propagations and collisions are studied in details. A soliton solution is derived by making several valid simplifications. We hope it shed light on understanding the unusual thermal properties of graphene.
