Abstract

It has been found that periodically closely spaced vacancies on a graphite sheet cause a significant rearrangement of its electronic spectrum: metallic waveguides with a high density of states near the Fermi level are formed along the vacancy lines. In the direction perpendicular to these lines, the spectrum exhibits a semimetal or semiconductor character with a gap where a vacancy miniband is degenerated into impurity levels.
