  • 摘要:Present work reports an elegant method to address the emergence of two Dirac cones in a non-hexagonal graphene allotrope S-graphene (SG). We have availed nearest neighbour tight binding (NNTB) model to validate the existence of two Dirac cones reported from density functional theory (DFT) computations. Besides, the real space renormalization group (RSRG) scheme clearly reveals the key reason behind the emergence of two Dirac cones associated with the given topology. Furthermore, the robustness of these Dirac cones has been explored in terms of hopping parameters. As an important note, the Fermi velocity of the SG system (vF $$\simeq $$ c/80) is almost 3.75 times that of the graphene. It has been observed that the Dirac cones can be easily shifted along the symmetry lines without breaking the degeneracy. We have attained two different conditions based on the sole relations of hopping parameters and on-site energies to break the degeneracy. Further, in order to perceive the topological aspect of the system we have obtained the phase diagram and Chern number of Haldane model. This exact analytical method along with the supported DFT computation will be very effective in studying the intrinsic behaviour of the Dirac materials other than graphene.
