Graphene in complex magnetic fields
Abstract
Exact analytic solutions for an electron in graphene interacting with external complex magnetic fields are found. The eigenvalue problem for the non-hermitian Dirac-Weyl Hamiltonian leads to a pair of intertwined Schr\"odinger equations, which are solved by means of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. Making an analogy with the non-uniform strained graphene a prospective physical interpretation for the complex magnetic field is given. The probability and currents densities are explored and some remarkable differences as compared with the real case are observed.
